Keyboard Navigation Triggering Slide Transitions

I’ve experienced this issue across different browsers and operating systems, and can’t say with certainty that it’s an issue with the plugin, but I’m surprised no one else has mentioned this (couldn’t locate an existing support request).

When using the Tab key to navigate through links on a page containing a slideshow, once the focus reaches links in the slideshow content the current slide will change as I continue to tab through the links. I believe this happens when I reach a link on a slide that is not currently visible.

This will happen even when automatic transitions are disabled, and upon tabbing back through the slideshow content in reverse order the displayed slide will often switch again without anything triggering it.

Does anyone else experience anything like this? I can’t seem to locate a demo of the plugin online to determine whether this might be specific to our setup or not.
