Accessibility Does Not Read Select Properly (JAWS)

Question

I have a select element inside of the modal used in Bootstrap. When the screen reader (Jaws), reads the select box when it loads it reads through all the options inside of the select. Instead it should read it the way it does on a regular page, "Combo Box (option value) can be changed using the up and down arrow keys". If I tab into the select element, it reads it the way its supposed to.

Bootstrap modal: http://getbootstrap.com/docs/3.3/javascript/#modals-examples

I am currently using Jaws 18 and IE 11 to test
