From the bug report I linked to, it sounds like some people resolved this issue by various means:
- Reinstalling all
gnome-keyring
packages Running
sudo gedit /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf
in a terminal, then removing the
autologin-user= YOUR USERNAME
line and runningsudo shutdown -h now
- Killing
plexmediaserver
, if installed - Doing a fresh reinstall of the whole OS
I have not tried any of these methods myself (I was previously affected but not anymore), so I cannot say from personal experience which of these would likely work for you. Be sure to backup any data before trying any of these suggestions.
