OK, I take it back, after thinking I had it solved it is sporadically not
responding.
holding ctrl while physically clicking the mouse works each time after which
holding down ctrl and clicking up and down arros together seems to work for the
first time then fails.

OK, Ian and others frustrated by the big sur problem of not being able to
access the doc menu, I have solved it without requiring a physical mouse as
described in my previous message.
here it is. open the doc and left right arrow to the app you wish to engage
with. now using a combination of ctrl and up and down arrows the menu is now
available.
up arrow into the menu.

ok, i'm not sure whether this has been mentioned, after big sur there has
been a difficulty opening the doc menu, it will open on the first instance
after a boot-up but not after that.
i think i have found a solution if you have a mouse.
going into the doc and navigation to the app you wish to open, while holding
down the ctrl key do a mouse click and the menu will open after which you
can scroll through it.
This is the method to open a context menu, something i think is recent to
the mac os.
I got this info from the first hint in this youtube
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1C1XBoYD-HI
you can do this ctrl mouse click where VO indicates there are actions
available.
this work around is using a physical mouse but someone may discover how to
do the same using the keyboard alone.
