Description

VoiceOver is too verbose when a MacBook, set to prompt for a password, is connected to power after the lid is closed.

1. Enable VoiceOver, and set the MacBook to prompt for a password when waking.
2. Close the Mac. It shouldn't matter, but I'm on a 2012 Air.
3. Connect the power cable. On my machine, VoiceOver says something like the following:

Five system dialogs displayed. Five system dialogs displayed. Five system dialogs displayed. Five system dialogs displayed. Five system dialogs displayed. Five system dialogs displayed. System has new window. New system window. Enter password. Four system dialogs displayed. Four system dialogs displayed. Four system dialogs displayed. [pause] Password.
