Hey,
What's your problem with Fred :)? Just because he lilts, or almost
sings, what he's saying doesn't deserve such malice. Maybe he's happy
with actually being chosen to talk, since he's like the kid that's
always picked last.

I too experience this at every installation and have always been able
to use the standard VO commands to change speech settings. The only
problem I have is with Fred.

Hi David,
Your assertion that it has nothing to do with muting or volume level is
not necessarily valid. The base system that is part of the installers
and the Recovery system accesses resources differently than the regular
MacOS. So, if VO is behaving normally after the installation has
finished, then it is accessing the full suite of system resources. The
base system has a limited set of settings as you can affirm by the
limited functionality of VO in general.
This is not to minimize your frustration, just to clarify things a little.

I I am not sure if my message got through yesterday.
However I have had exactly the same issue on my iMac with installing
Sierra.
I have installed loads of OS versions before without issue before coming
up against this accessibility barrier.
Voiceover only comes to life after the Sierra installer has completed.
Sighted help was telling me that every time I pressed command F5
Voiceover on would appear as text on screen but no sound would emerge.
This has nothing to do with muting or volume levels as everything
suddenly reverts to normal Voiceover feedback as soon as the installer
finishes.
I contacted Appole Accessibility about this but they pretty much
dismissed my concerns by claiming that I was the only person who had
ever reported this as an issue.
So if others are experiencing the same issue on their iMacs then I
would urge you to report it to Appole Accessibility and perhaps they
will take it seriously and investigate.

*Subject: *Installer not talking on my iMac
Hi all
I had to format and install a clean copy of Sierra for a friend over the
weekend and thought while I have the installer on a USB flash drive I
might as well do my iMac as well, since I’ve been wanting to do a clean
install for a while.
Everything worked as expected on my friends MBP and I did the clean
install for him, Voiceover talked me through the entire process as
expected. However this morning when I wanted to do my iMac, Voiceover
simply didn’t want to start during the installation process no matter
what I tried.
For reference I then inserted the USB drive with the installer in to my
Macbook Pro and booted in to it and Voiceover started just fine, but
nothing happens on my iMac.
Anyone had this happen to them before, any ideas or solutions?
My iMac is a late 2013 model running Sierra, my friends MBP which
Voiceover worked on during installation is a mid 2012 and my MBP is a
mid 2015 Retina.
