With the same password for user and Kwallet and having the latter opened

problem in original poster's configuration.
For what it's worth, I have the exact same behavior using Trixie with
XFCE4. In my case the user password and the keyring password ARE the
same. Still it asks for my password when I log into my account, and
again when I start chromium or remmina. Happens just once after reboot.
Other apps like firefox and thunderbird aren't doing it.
1. reboot
2. login => needs my password
3. start firefox or thunderbird => starts without asking for a password
4. start chromium or remmina => first one started needs my password
5. start firefox or thunderbird or chromium or remmina => starts without
asking for a password
6. now good to go, no more password needed (excepting apps that need
root, those still ask every time as expected), until after a reboot. I
did not check behavior of logout/login.
I don't understand why, and have not investigated how to fix it. For now
I've just been putting up with it. I noticed this behavior in Bookworm,
then when I upgraded to Trixie it vanished. At some point it started
doing it again. I do not remember whether it restarted doing it at the
same time I replaced the failing no longer booting SSD, and newly
installed Trixie.
