Could it be that your session manager doesn't set up the correct
environment variables that point any application using the keyring to
the keyring daemon?  Whatever starts your session and launches the
keyring daemon needs to insert these into the environment of all other
processes that start:

GNOME_KEYRING_SOCKET=/tmp/keyring-5KSAbP/socket
GNOME_KEYRING_PID=1392

That sort of thing.
