Screen Reader is not announcing role as 'OnOff' for SelectedNon-selected Colors button..zip

Expected Behavior

Screen Reader should announce role as 'On/Off' for Selected/Non-selected Colors button.
i.e. For the Selected 'Steel blue' button Screen Reader should announce 'Steel blue button On' and for non-selected 'Medium Sea Green' button Screen Reader should announce 'Medium Sea Green button Off'.

Actual Behavior

Screen Reader is not announcing role as 'On/Off' for Selected/Non-selected Colors button.
i.e. For Selected 'Steel blue' button Screen Reader is only announcing 'Steel blue button' and for non-selected 'Medium Sea Green' button Screne Reader is only announcing 'Medium Sea Green button'.

Observation: Issue repro with NVDA and JAWS Screen Reader.
