Public bug reported:
1. `apt-get install -y sway` to install an alternative Wayland window manager.
2. Login to `sway` user session.
3. Gnome Keyring will ask for passphrase to unlock SSH keys.
4. Then `gnome-keyring-daemon` stays in the background.
5. However, no shell terminal will see this
I have a similar problem after upgrade to 11.04: gnome-settings-daemon still
runs, and there is no indication of any crash in logs.
However all programs fail to apply GNOME themes, until gnome-settings-daemon is
killed and started again.
** Changed in: gnome-settings-daemon (Ubuntu)
For some people it also happens during a first login. See #574296

Title:
randomly gnome-settings-daemon fails
May it be related to or duplicate of
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-
daemon/+bug/521766?
It seems that the bug is affecting many people, and newbies may not be
comfortable with killall gnome-settings-daemon; gnome-settings-daemon
nautilus -q as a solution.
