Changing a user login password through GNOME or passwd does not change it accordingly in Seahorse. One is presented with a "Enter password to unlock your login keyring. The password you use to login to your computer no longer matches that of your login keyring" prompt on each login.

This can be fixed by opening Seahorse and changing the keyring password manually, but this isn't immediately obvious to a new user.

Yes, though I did change the password from a terminal in Openbox.

Does it work if you do it from a GNOME session? Openbox is just a window
manager, it doesn’t start other components like the keyring daemon.

I've just tried this in GNOME, and it doesn't work. I get the same message when logging back in. To my knowledge I've made no changes to the default configuration of Seahorse, etc.
