If you put the link text inside the CSS background image I think that
solves the problem?
Have a look at this page and enlarge the text. It works well for two
enlargements up to 150%.

A simple approach to this dilemma (really simple in fact)
a href=my_link title=my_link_descriptionimg src=my_image
alt=my_link_description //a
If images are 'on' its works as you'd expect. If not, the alt text is
shown as a link. Hurray!

There's also the empty span/span after the text in the link
approach. You can use CSS to make the span show your image over the
text real easy. Do a google search on the technique and you'll find
plenty of examples. I don't remember who came up with it originally,
but besides the extra

If the title attribute is ignored by screen readers, still, it would read
the alt attribute of the image which would include a meaningful description
of where the link is taking them to. Is this an annoying hurdle for screen
reader users - having an alt attribute to go by rather than a plain text
