This problem still exists in oneiric with default lubuntu setup. SSH_AUTH_SOCK is point to ssh-agent socket which is started by /etc/X11/Xsession. Gnome-keyring starts but environment variables are not exported in LXDE/Lubuntu session. And I can not find the place where it's exported by gnome/unity session. So the only workaround I found is to add to ~/.profile or somewhere in /etc/X11/Xsession.d/...:
export `/usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon --start --components=ssh`
So, I think this should be fixed the way similar to gnome-session, to allow enabling/disabling it via .config/autostart gui tools.
