I was about to submit this same bug... I can confirm that every time you login to your gnome session with a fingerprint you can't unlock your login keyring.
It seems that the prompt asking for the password fails to appear. For example, opening seahorse and clicking "unlock" has no effect (the button becomes gray but no prompt is shown). When other software tries to access the keyring (which is still locked) no prompt is shown and the software (e.g. the browser) either gets stuck, hangs or crashes. The only workaround I found so far is to lock the session and then unlock it with the password. After that, clicking on "unlock" in seahorse will work. I guess that the password you just used to unlock the session is cached for a while. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1875845 Title: keyring cannot be unlocked if used fingerprint to login gnome session To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-keyring/+bug/1875845/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
