I noticed in Apple’s VoiceOver getting started guide for Yosemite, they mention that on some machines, speech services are available at the FileVault login window. Of course, it has always been reasonably easy to interact with FileVault by pressing CMD+F5 before typing in your username, and learning what the audible tones mean. But on my machine, I’m now given an audible prompt to enter my username and password when I press CMD+F5. This is a Yosemite feature, but I’m not sure which machines have it. I’m also not sure whether this is something that is now present on the startup volume or whether it is included in the firmware. These speech services still don’t seem to be available in some places, such as when holding down the OPTION key when booting up the Mac to select a startup disk.
