After i upgraded from 19.04 to 19.10, i faced the same problem, even
with syncing turned on for my account in Chromium.
Here is the output when the problem still existed:
$ snap connections chromium | grep password
password-manager-service chromium:password-manager-service -
-
As suggested i executed the following and passwords/autofill for logins were
working again:
$ snap connect chromium:password-manager-service
Here is the output after the problem was fixed:
$ snap connections chromium | grep password
password-manager-service chromium:password-manager-service
:password-manager-service manual
Does this password-manager-service connection persist or do we have to
reconnect it everytime?

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.
