If you have File vault enabled, and you are using an older mac, then all you will hear is the single beep for user name, double beep for password. You can however turn VO on the log on screen. If you go into system preferences, go to users and groups, interact with the user table and VO until you hear Log in Options. Stop interacting, and check the box that says use voiceover on the log on window. Please note that you will have to check the "Click the lock to makes changes" checkbox and enter your password. HTH.
