I usually have to alt-tab to my desktop when I first boot up. Sometimes VO talks and sometimes it doesn't.

Hi Ann,

The problem is that regardless of whether the box is checked or not in System Preferences, when you go to shut down or restart under Lion, the Windows checkbox is checked. I confirmed this behavior after speaking with an Apple rep. He stated, and it is apparently the case, that one has to uncheck this box every time you shut down or restart Lion. This might be why I have the problem of VO not talking at system startup without bringing focus to the Finder.

You can change this behaviour in System Preferences. Go to the General pane and look for the check box labelled Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps and uncheck it. A quick way to find this is to use the Item Chooser (VO-i) and type res to select only phrases containing that string. Press Return to have VO go to the selected item.
