I am still unable to spot the cause of this. I purchased a new laptop and installed Hardy. Initially it worked. Then I installed lots and lots of programs at once (including Ubuntu Satanic edition). After that the same problem appeared. I don't that any of the programs I installed should modify seahorse. But it seems like it is one of them that causes the problem.
