What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Download any Chrome OS Android app from the web store, such as "Podcast 
Addict":
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/podcast-addict/gmiehaafbfgkmcagnmompcl
bbhcognhn?hl=en-US
 2. Open the app via the apps Launcher on a Chrome OS device.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

All Chromevox will say, are the buttons "Minimize," and "Close," which of 
course will pertain to the window where the app is, but it won't read what's in 
the window itself.
Tabbing says nothing, arrowing says nothing. 

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

App Runtime for Chrome (Beta) 41.4410.244.7
ChromeOS:
Version 41.0.2272.32 beta (64-bit)
Platform 6680.17.0 (Official Build) beta-channel gnawty
Firmware Google_Gnawty.5216.239.3

Please provide any additional information below.

Truly, I suspect there is no solution for this problem, and android apps would 
have to be also made as native Chrome apps for us Chromevox users to get much 
use out of them.
 Such as the "Facebook Messenger" app, or even the "Pandora" app. I truly want to see what magic the Chrome team can do is all, but it may get more blind people in to Chromebooks, knowing that Android Chrome OS apps work just as good, like with the normal ones that work with Talkback.
