Am I right in thinking that libsecret doesn't specifically use gnome-
keyring?  Is it possible that that under KDE it is trying to use
ksecretservice because that happens to have already been started by
KDE?

Can you have two "Secret Services" connected to D-BUS? If
ksecretservice starts up, will it disconnect gnome-keyring from D-BUS?
