Public bug reported:

Password is set using the Screen Sharing settings... Screen sharing
works till next machine reboot. After reboot the password entry is
cleared in the settings and cannot connect anymore.

The following line appears in syslog:
May 15 09:53:37 alpha gnome-remote-de[1512]: Couldn't retrieve VNC password: 
Password not set

Setting the password again in settings solves the problem... but this
isn't very helpful on a machine which is meant to run headless.

Thanks,
J.
