Public bug reported: I start keychain in my .bashrc like this: eval $(keychain --eval id_rsa)
The .bashrc is run in the Yakuake console which is started during KDE login. It attempts to load my ssh key and invokes ksshaskpass to ask for my password, which in turn invokes kwallet. Nothing happens at this point. Other applications have no problem accessing kwallet during this. Only solution seems to be to disable and reenable the kwallet subsystem and rerun keychain.
