I use nodm so I am auto-logged into my computers.
Some apps ask me to enter the password because:
Unlock Login Keyring
Authentication Required
The login keyring did not get unlocked when you logged into your computer.
Password:
That gtk dialog immediately nullify the output of the on-screen keyboard so I cannot unlock the keyring, and I have to log out to fix it.
(So I cannot unlock it without a physical keyboard).
How can I make the keyring unlock upon login?

Tip
To use automatic unlocking with automatic login, you can set a blank password for the default keyring. Note that the contents of the keyring are stored unencrypted in this case.
I rebooted but didn't work, so do I need to blank the keyring for auto login?
I was trying to find a method without removing the password.

How can you see it running?

Not all desktops use XDG autostart. Which desktop are you using?
EDIT: and in respect of the password I think you might have to disable autologin for this to work but I'm not sure 'cos I don't use the keyring or a display manager.
XDG autostart works here, openbox with the recommends package installed (default behavior).
I never set the keyring to exist vorta wanted me to have one.
And nheko asks for it.
You don't use keyring because did you blank the password?
My goal is to unlock the keyring for auto login, it seems that you have to remove the password as you said, hence you should have LUKS,

I don't use the keyring. I've never understood what it's for, exactly. I know if I enable autologin in GDM/GNOME I get a password prompt once at the desktop, which is really ****** annoying. That's why I don't use GNOME any more. Now that the keyring isn't running I don't get password prompts after autologin and everything works just fine. Seems to me that the keyring is just useless bloat but I must be wrong, right?
Anyway, all I had to offer was the ArchWiki link (as usual). Sorry.
I am on openbox and I never installed GNOME or other DEs.
The file "/etc/xdg/autostart/gnome-keyring-secrets.desktop" has "OnlyShowIn=GNOME;Unity;MATE;".
And also the other gnome-keyring*, but I can see its command in the gnome-keyring process:
