Hi,
No real answer to the problem but I have two workarounds for you.
1. After pressing cmd-f5 and you notice that there is no sound, press
VO-cmd-left arrow three times, then press VO-cmd-up arrow a number of
times. The System volume will increase and you should soon hear VO
speak.
or, if everything seems to be messed up and you can’t make it work that
way...
2. Reset your PRAM. This will put things like the sound back to
defaults and the next time you turn on VO, sound will be there.
Sorry, not the exact thing you were looking for, but it may help.
Later...

Subject: A question regarding Startup Volume in LowLevel / FileVault
Startup
Hello List,
Here’s an interesting situation that I’d like to bounce off all of you.
On one of our MBPs using FileVault and several accounts. Here’s the
problem.
Say, I log in under my account using the VO prompts after hitting Command
F5. The machine requests the account name. Then I press enter and it asks
for password. Then I press enter and the machine gives three beeps or an
error message, in either case, the machine either starts or lets me give
it another try.
Ok., all’s well and fine.
Now for the problem.
User #3 gets on the computer and logs in. This user isn’t a VO user, so
volumes and things don’t really mean much. He logs in and in the course
of using the computer, for some reason he decides to reduce the volume to
0.
The problem is that when I go to log in as a VO user, I have no output
info regarding the state of things while using VO after Command F5.
So here’s the Billion Dollar question.
Does anyone know of any way to preset the volume level at the
FileVault/Recovery system level for VO users at a constant value, no
matter what any other users do. If the audio provided at this low level
is influenced by users after logging in, I kind of am a little curious as
to why this isn’t completely isolated from post boot conditions.
Again, does anyone have any suggestions as to how I could preset and lock
the Volume Level for Pre Unlock or Recovery modes?
For example something preset in terminal or in the ROM somehow?
Thanks in advance.
