It seems like those buttons are not actual html buttons, they are just elements styled to look like buttons. So changing them to buttons might fix it. This video has some insight: Just use button -- A11ycasts #05
This page has some more hints for web developers on how to design accessible pages:

Looks like an alternative "fix" might be to set a tabindex on those elements.

There's an issue with the "Enter Giveaway", "Remove Entry" and "Create Ticket"
buttons. They seem to be lacking a certain hint, informing the browser they are
clickable.
Whatever it is that's missing, it causes pentadactyl[1] (and I assume screen
readers and other accessibility software etc) to not know they are clickable.
This requires me to access and use a mouse for them.
Unfortunately I am unaware of the actual hint required in the
HTML/JS/CSS. Traditionally these would be <input type=button> or similar but
that's probably web 1.0 these days :P Does anyone know off hand what might be
missing?
[1] Pentadactyl - a browser plugin that allows for complete mouseless keyboard
navigation, similar to vimium, vimperator etc
