Hi Simon, I also have not hooked up the Apple TV to my receiver with an optical cable, but there is no reason why Voiceover should not work if you choose to do so. Apple has made the Apple TV accessible with Voiceover and it would make little sense to do this only when an HDMI connection is used, after all, HDMI is still a digital connection except that it includes video as well as audio whereas the optical connector is just for audio. In any case, if you are interested just buy it from Apple and send it back within 30 days should you not like it.

If it hasn't been set up yet it will tell you to press the lower right button on the remote three times to activate it. What makes it even nicer is you can easily turn VoiceOver off if you want, then with a couple of commands turn it on again. If you have any other questions let me know. GO TIGERS!
