Summary:
We're continuously updating the accessibilityLabel of a custom view. After each update, we're posting a UIAccessibilityLayoutChangedNotification. VO correctly speaks all the new accessibilityLabel values. However, if the updated accessibilityLabel is equal to the value when beginning the VO focus on the element, this updated value isn't spoken.

Steps to Reproduce:
Build an app that changes the accessibilityLabel value every 5 seconds between the values "one", "two" and "three". Set the initial value (in -viewDidLoad or via NIB) to "one". Now enable VO (via 3* home button) and focus the element.

Expected Results:
"one", "two" and "three" should be spoken.

Actual Results:
Only "two" and "three" are spoken.

Regression:
This happens on an iPhone 4 running iOS 4.3.3.
It seems to be fixed on an iPad 2 running iOS 5.0 beta 2.
