I hit this too. I have not yet switched from 18.04, but I decided to try
installing the snap as a preview, as https://ubuntu.com/blog/chromium-
in-ubuntu-deb-to-snap-transition suggests. No passwords were available,
making this basically useless, as I rely heavily on the Keyring
integration in Chromium.
~$ apt policy chromium-browser
chromium-browser:

~$ snap connections chromium | grep password

I presume /var/log/apt/term.log and /var/log/apt/history.log are of no
great interest in my case.

Title:
[snap] lost all passwords on 19.10 when chromium-browser deb was
replaced by a snap
Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
After I've upgraded 19.04 to 19.10, chromium-browser deb was replaced
by a snap package.
When chromium is now started from a snap package, I no longer have any
passwords which I had saved in deb version of chromium-browser.
This is quite annoying; a workaround for now is to downgrade to
chromium-browser deb from 19.04.
