I think I may have cleared the problem though Apple certainly are
slipping. I always regarded areas labelled as groups as areas to
interact with and investigate. However the group in this dialogue box is
not a group at all to begin with and you will find if you interact with
it, it says empty group. However despite it being to begin with, not a
group at all it is however an unannounced button. Only after pressing
this group as a button will other group items appear.
Basically this log in screen appeared half way through a maintenance
update and therefore seems to take no account of your log in preferences.
I got it to work by
1. Turn on Voiceover.
2Although you appear to only have sleep restart and shutdown as your
available buttons the area labelled with your user name and labelled as
a Group is also actually a button.
3. Press VO space on where it says what ever your user name Group is.
In my case it says David Griffith Group.
4. After pressing Vo Space on this group a password field will then
appear.
To see this with Voiceover you need to interact with the group
5. interact again with the edit field to enter your normal password.
6. I pressed Enter after this
and after a few seconds Voiceover then announces that the update is
installing and eventually you will return to familiar territory with
your Mac.
I hope this helps somebody else experiencing this problem.

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?
