VoiceOver describes text as if it is an image

If image description is on, VoiceOver seems to treat text fields or table cells that contain a single character as though it is an image, and provides a spurious description of it. For example, if I encounter a table cell containing the single character "1", VoiceOver may say "one straw drinking". I've reported this to Apple; has anyone else encountered this?
