dthanks - I was not clear enough in my explanation of the issue.
This problem suddenly appeared after a normal maintenance update today,
not a install of any kind.
In addition my User account is identical to my apple ID so there should
not be any issue there.
However on this new logon screen, which has appeared in defiance of my
system settings not to require a log on, and which has never appeared
before, there is nowhere that voiceover sees to enter a User ID. The
only visible to Voiceover edit box is just the password field.
After entering this you are then locked into just sleep, shutdown and
restart as your options.
I strongly recommend that that people do not install this update if this
is the consequence.
I remember a Mac friend ringing me to complain about this issue which
occured for him also some time ago so it may be a rogue bug in the OS,
it is certainly annoying.

this is your user account login and if you did a clean install you need to
create a user login that is not the apple login

I have not been on my Mac much recently as I have got pretty disillusioned by
various annoyances and bugs which seem to abound on the Mac nowadays.
I installed the latest El Kapitan update today to see if that resolved any
matters only to be confronted by a whole new range of access barriers.
I had my Mac set to not require a logon but all of a sudden I am required to
provide one.
I can turn Voiceover on and enter my password but the only buttons then
available to me in the dialogue are sleep, restart and shut down.
I can see nothing about entering an Apple ID.
So all of a sudden I am locked completely out of a very expensive piece of kit.
Has anybody else encountered this and is there is any solution for a Voiceover
user?
