I encountered similar phenomena.

Yesterday, I deleted my GNOME keyring files (~/.gnome2/keyrings/*.keyring) to 
avoid annoying password entry message appearing upon startup. Far from my 
purpose, gwibber went very unstable since then. Sometimes, gwibber didn't 
display any timeline and Me Menu are trying to create "default.keyring" (here, 
default is in Japanese ... as I am using ja_JP.UTF8 locale).
I found re-creation of key (by "encryption and key files" from Application 
Menu) and added my Twitter account and password. It seemed problem solved, but 
in this time, gwibber would not update timeline after about 20 minutes from 
launch.

After several trial, I found current and tentative solution. It is very simple.
* If I found gwibber no longer updates timeline, Close gwibber.
* Kill gwibber-service by
  ps aux | grep gwi
  kill -KILL (process number of gwibber-service)
* restarting gwibber-service by
  /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/gwibber-service &

Currently it works anyway. But I need some essential solution. I suppose
this bug is related with python and dbus connection, not authentication
module.

Hope this helps.
