It's been a while since I used a course menu, but I swear this used to work. When I'm not running JAWS, I can TAB to the menu and navigate through the items using the arrow keys. When JAWS (2018 or 2021) is turned on, though, the arrow keys do not do anything.
Great question! The Menu button on the player opens a list of Menu items. You'll want to tab to the first item in the Menu and then use the up/down arrows to navigate through the list of slides. Here's a quick demo of what to expect.
I was still having problems until a user in a different discussion thread suggested I use SHIFT-Space when selecting the menu and that seemed to work. Mark Klosowski mentioned that my problem might be related to having menu items from different scenes in my menu and filed a bug report.

Hi Erich!

Thanks for the response, Lauren.
I'll share that I'm using a drop-down menu and the classic player: https://360.articulate.com/review/content/fd8ee051-7792-41b4-a8b8-3260f9cd7cce/review. That functions a bit different than the persistent menu in the modern player you demonstrated. My fault for not specifying my environment.

Hope this can help someone else.
