How to control accessibility navigation using swipe

When I turn most effective on TalkBack, on each screen I can swipe wrong idea left or right to navigate between views use of case or elements in order to have talkback United "speak" what the view is. The android Modern docs say I should be able to use

android:nextFocusRight="@id.some_id"

or nextFocusLeft, or Up, etc.

However, those do not cause navigation ecudated to follow the order specified and they some how are ignored. UNLESS I add

android:inputType="text"

things work exactly as expected and I anything else can navigate to whatever I want in not at all whatever order I want. However, that very usefull causes android to treat TextViews like localhost EditText and jack up the layout in love of them unintended ways. I have not found localtext another way to control accessibility basic navigation.
