arrow-circle-down is read out by JAWS screen reader

[rhulse]

I have been doing a bunch of testing on my site and I have also checked on the font awsome site - this is the case there also.

JAWS reads out the unicode for arrow-circle-down. I wonder if this is a bug in JAWS though, as the unicode is well within the range of the PUA??

@rhulse only that icon?

Refers to #6133

I did try many others on the demo page and they were fine, but I did not try them all.

In the end I did try a different browser. Turns out that Chrome reads out that font, IE does not.

I'll log a bug with Chrome.
