Returning to the original question, my (novice) understanding was that the
aural style

speak: spell-out;

could be used to assist in this situation to advise screen readers *not* to
"just say vah" below. This seems to make sense; however I don't know if the
modern crop of readers honor that CSS2 rule.

<acronym style="speak: spell-out;" title="Virginia">VA</acronym>
