Hello, Here is the first item I found when I did a google search for this product:
http://www.everyhue.com/vanilla/discussion/778/snoozy-2-0-is-launched This is not quite what you were looking for, but it does work with the above lights and the developer looks to be very willing to work with accessibility. Look down at the comments and see where the developer mentions putting in many accessibility support items for blind-users. I have not gone and downloaded the application, but may very well do so in the near future.
