Tested on Win 11, 24H2

Issue
It is not possible to navigate the menu with keyboard. You can try this by running the example app. Simply start it, make sure it has an icon (setIcon) and a context menu (setContextMenu). Then:

  1. Navigate to system tray by using [WinKey] + B
  2. Press [Space] to open it
  3. Navigate to the application by using arrow keys
  4. Press [Space] to "left-click" (onTrayIconMouseDown)
  5. This will open the menu
  6. Try navigating the menu using the keyboard (arrow keys). It is not possible.

This is the menu, from the example app, that you cannot navigate with keyboard:
