I believe it'll prompt you on your first log in (and first connection to
an encrypted network). Then, if you set a password that's not blank, it
will prompt you for a password when you log in. 

However, if libpam-keyring is installed, auto-login is disabled, and
your keyring password is the same as your login password, it'll
auto-unlock your keyring when you log in. The reason for this is that
libpam-keyring takes the password you have typed in at GDM to unlock
your keyring when you log in.

If you use auto-login and do not want to type in your keyring password,
then you have to use a blank password for your keyring, after which
it'll prompt you asking if you want to use unsecured storage.
