Have you tried the passthrough? If you want to do a key combination that
belongs to voiceover but for something else instead, you do
ctrl-option-tab before that keypress.
Also, you didn't say what you need ctrl-option for in vmware. I know at
least in windows xp that you can change shortcut keys that are being used
so if you are needing ctrl-option for your screenreader, that can be
changed.
You should also keep in mind that there are times when you do want
voiceover in the vmware window to navigate in some dialogs of vmware
itself rather than the particular operating system you are running so
this has nothing to do with voiceover being "aggressive". It is in vmware
or in your guest operating system that you need to make a change in key
assignments.
I will warn, however, that at least in my linux vmware installation I
sometimes have a problem with my right arrow key (not in conjunction with
voiceover but by itself) not working and I sometimes have to turn
voiceover on and off to solve this. I suspect there's a solution for this
but haven't bothered to work on it so far but just thought I'd warn you in
case that happens.
