Seems it's started automatically like this:

    jonas 17639 0.0 0.0 216412 6996 ? SLl 11:54 0:00 /usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon --daemonize --login

Running it like this fixes it:

    /usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon --start --foreground --components=secrets,ssh,pkcs11

Faulty assumptions made for startup script?
