I hope that it's okay that I CC this to the gnome-keyring mailing list...

I'm sorry about that. I really do want to make this work. I believe this
worked all the way up to versions 2.28.2.

In 2.29.x (and the upcoming 2.30.0) there's a new DBus API for keyrings
which will be standardized across desktops. The downside of this is that
there wasn't time to reimplement the (seldomly used) removable media
feature.

I use this myself, and I want to reimplement it for 2.31.x and 2.32.
Many apologies for the inconvenience.

Cheers,

Stef
