Package: mate-desktop
Version: 1.16.2-2

I'm using Debian Linux zenme 4.9.0-4-686-pae #1 SMP Debian 4.9.51-1 (2017-09-28) i686 GNU/Linux.

When a blind person starts the computer, they don't have any way of knowing whether the login screen has loaded or not. The system does not provide any aural cues for blind users, so they have to call sighted people to help them log in.


Expected result
===============

When the login screen is displayed, it should wait for a few seconds for user input. If there is no response from the user, the system should provide an aural cue, so that blind users know they are in the login screen. For example:

SYSTEM: "Hi there!"
SYSTEM: "Please press SOME_KEYS at the same time if you need aural assistance"

(User presses SOME_KEYS)
(System focuses the username field)

SYSTEM: "You are in the login screen"
SYSTEM: "Please enter a username"

(User enters username and presses Tab to enter password)

SYSTEM: "Please enter the password"

(User enters password and presses Enter to log in)

After this, the desktop is displayed with the screen reader on.
