[Blindmath] MathML: JAWS does not render greek symbols or minuses and NVDA doesn't render any formulae/symbols

I am really puzzled about why this isn't working properly with either
NVDA or JAWS. I would like to determine where the issue is exactly,
get more details, and try to get it resolved.

Thanks,

Kevin
