name="bbp_topic_content" id="bbp_topic_content" aria-label="Topic Content"></textarea>

WordPress core added aria-labels to quicktags in r32883

Before:

<div id="qt_bbp_reply_content_toolbar" class="quicktags-toolbar">
    <input type="button" id="qt_bbp_reply_content_strong" class="ed_button button button-small" value="b">
    <input type="button" id="qt_bbp_reply_content_em" class="ed_button button button-small" value="i">
    <input type="button" id="qt_bbp_reply_content_link" class="ed_button button button-small" value="link">
    <input type="button" id="qt_bbp_reply_content_block" class="ed_button button button-small" value="b-quote">
    <input type="button" id="qt_bbp_reply_content_del" class="ed_button button button-small" value="del">
    <input type="button" id="qt_bbp_reply_content_img" class="ed_button button button-small" value="img">
    <input type="button" id="qt_bbp_reply_content_ul" class="ed_button button button-small" value="ul">
    <input type="button" id="qt_bbp_reply_content_ol" class="ed_button button button-small" value="ol">
    <input type="button" id="qt_bbp_reply_content_li" class="ed_button button button-small" value="li">
    <input type="button" id="qt_bbp_reply_content_code" class="ed_button button button-small" value="code">
    <input type="button" id="qt_bbp_reply_content_close" class="ed_button button button-small" title="Close all open tags" value="close tags">
</div>

After:

<div id="qt_bbp_reply_content_toolbar" class="quicktags-toolbar">
    <input type="button" id="qt_bbp_reply_content_strong" class="ed_button button button-small" aria-label="Bold" value="b">
    <input type="button" id="qt_bbp_reply_content_em" class="ed_button button button-small" aria-label="Italic" value="i">
    <input type="button" id="qt_bbp_reply_content_link" class="ed_button button button-small" aria-label="Insert link" value="link">
    <input type="button" id="qt_bbp_reply_content_block" class="ed_button button button-small" aria-label="Blockquote" value="b-quote">
    <input type="button" id="qt_bbp_reply_content_del" class="ed_button button button-small" aria-label="Deleted text (strikethrough)" value="del">
    <input type="button" id="qt_bbp_reply_content_img" class="ed_button button button-small" aria-label="Insert image" value="img">
    <input type="button" id="qt_bbp_reply_content_ul" class="ed_button button button-small" aria-label="Bulleted list" value="ul">
    <input type="button" id="qt_bbp_reply_content_ol" class="ed_button button button-small" aria-label="Numbered list" value="ol">
    <input type="button" id="qt_bbp_reply_content_li" class="ed_button button button-small" aria-label="List item" value="li">
    <input type="button" id="qt_bbp_reply_content_code" class="ed_button button button-small" value="code">
    <input type="button" id="qt_bbp_reply_content_close" class="ed_button button button-small" title="Close all open tags" value="close tags">
</div>

Both these qt_bbp_reply_content_code and qt_bbp_reply_content_close quicktags do NOT have an aria-label per the code posted above, should investigate this at the same time.
