Bug Description
At startup of the Ubuntu system, encrypted disks are unlocked. The saved passwords are forgotten in a very reproducible way. This happens if you have three or more disks to be unlocked and mounted.
1) At first startup you enter the password and saves it for future use. The disk is unlocked and mounted.
2) The second startup the disk is only unlocked, but not mounted. Clicking on it in the file browser mounts it.
3) The third startup you need to enter the password again, starting over again at step one.
The password is still in the keyring and every time you enter the password a new entry is added.
Looking in "gnome-disks" it seems as while other disks are being unlocked, a disk can't be mounted at the same time.
My unlock time it set for 60 seconds.
