thank you for your bug report, that's not a bug though, the keyring
where your password are stored would not be secure if it could be read
in a programmatic way without you entering a secret so it needs to be
unlocked once by entering a password, either on the login screen or in
the session when you try to access it for the first time there. Note
that you can set an empty password for it if you don't care about the
security of your password and that there is already some bugs open about
not storing wireless passwords in the secure keyring to avoid prompting
for those (you would still get the prompt when starting other softwares
using gnome-keyring though)
