Hello Nick, This sounds like an awfully convoluted way to download Audible books. I just click the link to my library, then press VO-Cmd-t to get to the table. I then interact with the table and navigate right until I find first the name of the book, then much further right, the download link. I just interact and press VO-Space. Cmd-Option-l takes me to the downloads window.
Once the book is downloaded, I go to my Downloads folder and open it with Cmd-o and it opens in iTunes. Safari works just fine for me.
