Behaviour update: focusing on the overall button control, and again in the corner of the button when the button has no text announcing the alt text twice.
That detail narrows it down a lot — JAWS is picking the alt text up twice, once from the button control and once from the graphic nested inside it. If it has to stay icon-only, check the inner graphic's alt text and clear it so only the button carries the name; if real text is an option, that beats alt text for reliability.
