Hello! Sharing in case anyone else is experiencing the same issue as I, or if anyone knows of a workaround.
Issue: Post update of Fedora 40, authentication issues of my keyring persist. I have typed every possible old and current password that I can think of, yet it will not unlock. This issue is strange in apps that absolutely require it such as the official Minecraft launcher; meaning the gnome pop-up will not go away until you’ve force quit the app or supplied the correct password (which I cannot).
Error code: “The login keyring did not get unlocked when you logged into your computer.”
I’m curious, do you log in with your fingerprint on first boot? I had some issues with the keyring not unlocking after first login when I used my fingerprint. I’ve been logging in with password on first boot for a while now and haven’t had the issue again. These could be completely unrelated causes, but maybe that’s worth looking into.
Attached are logs after boot; that contain the keyword “keyring”:

Update: Honestly, I just ended up deleting the keyring and created a new one using the “Passwords & Keys” Linux application, and this resolved my issue.
I have the same issue as well, I was starting to think it was normal since it only happens if I try to use the fingerprint reader on first boot. If I fist login with my password, and let the laptop suspend, then I can log on with the fingerprint reader without having the keyring issue.
