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)
