I'm not expert but it's my understanding that xinitrc will only run when
the x server starts, not before your shell.

Try adding

# You probably need to do this too:
export GNOME_KEYRING_CONTROL GNOME_KEYRING_PID GPG_AGENT_INFO SSH_AUTH_SOCK

Into your .bashrc or .profile. I'm not really sure exactly where the values
for these come in!

Cheers,
Adam
