Well I have just downloaded and installed version 11.0.10 from Adobe and nothing appears to have changed.
None of the text area of the two PDF documents I loaded were available to Voiceover. I went through the Accessibility Setup wizard and specified that I was using a screen reader but this again provided no useful result. The only text area of thethat I was able to interact and read was the filename title of the PDF document. It is possible I have missed something but I went through all the preferences.
