Hi, I wanted to know if I am the only one experiencing this and if there is a fix before doing so. Though, I suppose it doesn't hurt to report it even if there is.
It might take your VoiceOver a little while to respond after waking up, but I have never experienced this. I'm just happy the login prompt reads properly now. Well, I'm going to send Apple a copy of this so that I don't have to write it again. Of course, I'll edit out a few things.
