We’re not too worried about mobile on our site for a number of reasons, but that is a good point to consider for future. In that context I’d likely default to the hovered state.
It is true I very much want it to read out both as to do otherwise would make it unclear as to why there’s a button in the first place. It’s too bad there’s not a way, that I know of, to reliably tell a screen-reader to ignore text via CSS and then update upon action, alerting the screen-reader to the change. I know there is some of that in ARIA for JS, but it strikes me that doing it in CSS would be just as useful.
