Hello,
Another solution is to toggle VO off then back on. But be sure not to move to 
another window during this process.
When you restart VO, all the fields will be available to VO, such as Admin name 
and Secure text field.
In fact, I have now adopted the habit of toggling VO off and on in all 
instances concerning passwords, weather it be system admin stuff or passwords 
in specific applications. This always works for me. I have reported this to

accessibil...@apple.com

HTH.
