Both of my machines always now speak on login, but when I upgraded my Macbook I was not hearing speech at login. After selecting the option in System Preferences and enabling function keys in the keyboard prefs, I was then able to start VO at login by pressing command + F5 and turned up the volume as it was down to zero. Since then it has worked every time.
