Didn’t it work with the list-stye-image hack I gave? That never failed for me 
(both Edge and IE 11 and older, given how long it has been in the default JQ-ui 
stylesheet).

list-style: 
url("data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7");

I always use JS to power that kind of menus, it has the added advantage that 
you can manage the whole ARIA machinery. The bootstrap script is probably the 
best out there (or the least bad?).

Here is a sample:
https://dev.l-c-n.com/_t/menu/menu.html
ATM it is configured to behave as an application menu (I coded it for the 
navigation bar for the backend of a CMS (Textpattern). It can be modified to be 
more like a webpage nav thing.

* the focus / hover states are left as an exercise to the reader :-)
* open the web inspector in our browser to see how the Aria-* act / change
* also note, it doesn’t have a problem with the list marker, for whatever 
reason.

On your Mac ? What are your FKA (Full Keyboard Access) settings in System 
Preferences keyboard pane, shortcuts? Firefox gets it from there (as does 
Safari, but Safari has additional options in its own Preferences > Advanced).
