You may want to reach out to Central Washington University: https://www.cwu.edu/central-access/

Their Central Access Toolbar works with Infty Editor to remove all the hijinks going on in the background and make an accessible Math textbook in HTML. They also have the Central Access Reader for those without TTS capabilities. 

Can also convert to Nemeth Braille on the fly after converting. 

Best, 

Joshua

That's true. You could try TeX4HT, which should give better results when converting from LaTeX than Pandoc does.
