Public bug reported: GNOME Keyring often fails to unlock at login in XFCE, other users in the xubuntu-users mailing list have also reported this. It affects applications using the gnome-keyring framework, including chromium / google chrome.
The file causing the problem is /etc/xdg/autostart/gnome-keyring-pkcs11.desktop . The line OnlyShowIn=GNOME;Unity should be changed to OnlyShowIn=GNOME;Unity;XFCE to enable gnome-based applications using the keyring to run properly under XFCE. dpkg -S gnome-keyring-pkcs11.desktop gives gnome-keyring: /etc/xdg/autostart/gnome-keyring-pkcs11.desktop so the package that needs to be fixed is definitely gnome-keyring.
