[macvoiceover] Frustrating Sidebar issue in Finder with Voice Over

Hi.

Since yesterday, I have had an annoying problem with Voice Over and the Sidebar 
in Finder.  When I VO Left to the Sidebar and interact with it, as soon as I VO 
Up or VO down, VO takes me out of the sidebar and places me in the window for 
the item it has just opened.  I have know way of currently just up and down 
arrowing through the Sidebar without a window opening that is associated with 
the Sidebar item that I have just encountered.

I have gone to the preferences in Finder, and the items for folders to be 
spring-loaded is unchecked.  Needless to say, this makes navigating up and down 
through the Sidebar very, very slow since whenever I encounter a new entry, its 
associated window pops up as if I had left the Sidebar and gone into that item.

Any thoughts on remedying this annoyance would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Mike
