Narrator Activates When Typing "B" in Sign Interface (on Mac)
Writing a letter B on a sign, whether uppercase or lowercase, triggers narrator.
I previously thought this was only typing a capital B using shift, but then I discovered that typing B on a sign at all activated narrator.

Mac OS X El Capitan, Java 7 Update 9

Narrator Activates/Deactivates When Typing Capital B on a Sign
LShift+B seems to trigger narrator just like control+B, and it happens while typing on a sign. Writing a capital B on a sign (using LShift) triggers narrator.
Note that I am on a Mac, where Command+B also activates narrator in addition to ctrl+B and LShift+B.

I tried this on Windows and it did not happen, so it seems to be Mac-specific.

This is a combination of the issues "Ctrl-Key-Stuck" and "Narrator key hardcoded"
I'm confused, I don't understand how this is a duplicate of those issues. My issue is that when I am in the interface for writing a sign, if I type B on the sign then narrator triggers. So if I place a sign in Minecraft and write "Black bugs blood" on the sign, the narrator hotkey will trigger three times even if I'm not pressing control or command. It seems to be specifically an issue with the sign's interface not being able to override the hotkey. I don't have this issue when typing B into the normal chat interface.
I didn't have any other symptoms of the stuck keys issue. Backspace didn't delete whole words. No other hotkeys got triggered inexplicably. It doesn't seem like the same problem.
I feel like this issue wasn't considered very closely before being labeled as resolved. It is completely different from the other issues that this was marked as a duplicate of.
It doesn't seem to be happening every time, so I'm thinking now that it probably does have to do with the stuck key issue. It's still strange that it happens on a sign interface but not in the chat interface though.
Please check if that's still an issue in the latest snapshot / 1.13 release.
I apologize for basically abandoning this thread. I figured out that the issue is indeed
MC-3643and this should be marked a duplicate of it.
