I think this is a bug in gnome-keyring-daemon. Doing:
  fuser $SSH_AUTH_SOCK
returns the PID of gnome-keyring-daemon.

So gnome-keyring-daemon is trying to take over ssh key management, but apparently is not capable of doing so. It should be possible to disable gnome-keyring handling of ssh keys by adding the "--components=keyring" flag. However, I can't seem to find where gnome-keyring is started from.
