I don't use it myself but:

1. Is gnome-keyring installed?

$ rpm -q gnome-keyring

2. Is there a gnome-keyring-daemon running in your session?

$ ps -ef | grep [k]eyring

3. Reading https://www.adamsdesk.com/posts/fix-gnome-keyring-ssh-auth-sock/
(which is written from the PoV of an Arch user, but in theory is probably
still applicable), you may want to check the status of gcr-ssh-agent.socket

$  systemctl --user status gcr-ssh-agent.socket

4. Is your SSH_AUTH_SOCK set correctly? (I suspect it should be set to
something like SSH_AUTH_SOCK=/run/user/1000/gcr/ssh)

$ echo $SSH_AUTH_SOCK

Beyond that, check your journalctl output and try and provide some
additional debug.

What happens if you run ssh-add from a terminal (with SSH_AUTH_SOCK set),
just the usual "Enter passphrase"?
