This problem still exists in oneiric with default lubuntu setup. SSH_AUTH_SOCK 
is  point to ssh-agent socket which is started by /etc/X11/Xsession. 
Gnome-keyring starts but environment variables are not exported in LXDE/Lubuntu 
session. And I can not find the place where it's exported  by gnome/unity 
session. So the only workaround I found is to add to ~/.profile or somewhere in 
/etc/X11/Xsession.d/...:
export `/usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon --start --components=ssh`

So,  I think this should be fixed the way similar to gnome-session, to
allow enabling/disabling it via .config/autostart gui tools.
