JAWS Screenreader, Table Loses Focus When Sorting From Column Header (508 Compliance)

The government application I work on is going through an audit and we got dinged on an issue with the table losing focus when sorting.

Here is the scenario with JAWS v17 running:
1) Using the TAB key, user navigates to table in the page, uses TAB key to navigate to desired column header
2) Presses ENTER key to sort the table, successfully sorts.
3) On the same column header, presses ENTER key again to re-sort. The table loses focus.
4) JAWS announces "Showing 1 to 5 of 18 entries" (This can obviously change based on the data.
5) Press TAB key, next field visited it the pagination buttons for the table.

Has anyone experienced this before?

To make matters more interesting, this issue does not occur when JAWS is NOT running.
