We are unable to programmatically enable AppleScript automation for VoiceOver on macOS 15 (Sequoia) In macOS 15, Apple moved the VoiceOver configuration from: ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.VoiceOver4/default.plist to a sandboxed path: ~/Library/Group Containers/group.com.apple.VoiceOver/Library/Preferences/com.apple.VoiceOver4/default.plist
Steps to Reproduce: Use a macOS 15 (ARM64) machine (or GitHub Actions runner image with macOS 15 ARM). Open VoiceOver: open /System/Library/CoreServices/VoiceOver.app Set the SCREnableAppleScript flag to true in the new sandboxed .plist:
plutil -replace SCREnableAppleScript -bool true ~/Library/Group\ Containers/group.com.apple.VoiceOver/Library/Preferences/com.apple.VoiceOver4/default.plist
Confirm csrutil status is either disabled or not enforced.
Attempt to control VoiceOver via AppleScript (e.g., using osascript voiceOverPerform.applescript).
Observe that the AppleScript command fails with no useful output (exit code 1), and VoiceOver does not respond to automation.
Are you adding the App Sandbox Temporary Exception Entitlements for to app? That might be what's getting in the way here.
