It should still be in system preferences under the users and groups setting. Choose the log in options group and click the lock to enable making changes. Then there'll be a check box to have voiceover start at the login screen.
Good luck,

the option is in System Prefs under Users and login options, but checking it doesn't same to make it work. I've written to Apple about this, you might want to do so as well.

I did at first have this issue on one of my Macs. After ticking the box in login options for VO to kick in on login did not work for me. So I hit VO + F5 at login and turned the volume up and it worked.
I am going to assume you have already tried this.
One thing I have noticed though is when I awake my Mac from sleep and I am greeted with the system dialog box to enter my username and password, I am informed that i have 2 dialog boxes! So god knows where the other one is!

That's one of the weird things. Pressing those keys does absolutely nothing. I'd say it was like the keyboard doesn't work, except that I am able to interact with the user list, select myself, and enter my password.

Hi Donna,
Have you tried changing your login screen from a list of users to just the
user name and password boxes?
I don't think how this would afect VoiceOver, but then, stranger things have
happened.
It does look more and more like a new installation is needed.

Hi Chris,
That's one of the weird things. Pressing those keys does absolutely
nothing. I'd say it was like the keyboard doesn't work, except that I am

Oh good, I am geting that 2 dialogue box thing as well. I was hoping someone else would have the problem. Since it doesn't seem to have another dialogue once logged in, I have just ignored it as a weird glitch or something. But, it would be better if it wasn't there at all.

Are you pressing FN to adjust the volume? or trying to adjust the volume without pressing FN? I am wondering if the behaviour of your function keys has changed?

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.
