Yes I also experience this on a MacBook Air running Mavericks. I have not found a solution so far.

The computer is actually functioning properly, VO is just not ready to speak to you. So, if your Mac requires you to enter your password, just go ahead and enter it. If you're wanting to start a specific app, you can still press VO-d to go to the Desktop and press the first couple letters of the Dock shortcut and press return to open it. Usually, somewhere in that process, VO will start announcing what you're doing. It's kind of a pain but, you are correct in that it is a Mavericks thing. Later...

One of the things I've always liked about my macbook pro is that I could close the lid and when I re-opened it I had almost instant access to the computer. Since Mavericks that is not the case. Voiceover will not speak at first, and there is about 10 seconds in which I cannot do anything at all but patiently wait for my computer to have its morning cup 'o jo after waking up; Does anybody else have this sluggish problem?
