Accessibility - Screen Reader - Keybind events not working after date selection

Hi,

I am having an issue using the datepicker with a screen reader (NVDA) where pressing the right/left arrow keys results in the screen reading announcing the change as "blank", and doesn't actually read out the change of date.

Pressing up and down works (to change the week) and the screen reader announces the change, and Pressing ctrl-arrow up/down works to announce the year change -- it's just right and left that are failing to be announced/detected properly by the screen reader.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Update: Apologies, this is a duplicate of #257 that still needs to be addressed.

However, there are further issues regarding keyBind events not working more than once -- for example, I am able to use the left/right keys when first populating a blank/empty datepicker field, but once it has a value and I re-trigger the datepicker, the keyboard events no longer appear to work...
