systemd is not the salvation, it's svchost.exe
First identify what program wants access to kwallet. Then find out, why these program(s)
start at session startup.

Hi,
I ran across this on the OpenSuSE user list. It's also a problem for me at login
time;
I've been starting Kmail and Konqueror manually because of it.
Will the suggestion using systemd, listed at the end, work in Trinity also?
TIA,
Leslie

Hi,
I've been a KDE user since version 2.x on Slackware more than 20 years
ago. I really like it for my daily work, but some details are a bit of a
PITA. Kwallet is one of them.
Here's a few scenarios that happen erratically on my Tumbleweed
installations.
1. KDE starts, Kwallet pops up immediately and leaves me about ten
seconds to type in my very long GPG password. In the background,
applications that need a password to connect (like OwnCloud) fail and
have to be restarted.
2. KDE starts, Wi-Fi tries to connect but fails, OwnCloud asks me for
the connection password, and after about a minute or so, Kwallet decides
to pop up too late to the show.
3. KDE starts, Kwallet pops up, I type in my password fast enough, Wi-Fi
connects but OwnCloud asks me for the connection password even though
Kwallet has been opened successfully.
Any idea how I can make Kwallet behave ?
Cheers from the sunny South of France,
Niki
I have the same problem.
I just had an idea, but it needs some experimenting to check whether it
would work. Recently KDE introduced managing it's services with systemd
[1]. Systemd allows to extend units using "foo.service.d" directories
[2]. Maybe it would be possible to inject a dependency between kwallet
and nextcloud?
In my case it looks like this:
- kwallet runs under "dbus-:1.2-org.kde.kwalletd5@0.service"
- nextcloud runs under
"app-com.nextcloud.desktopclient.nextcloud-<random_id>.scope".
- both units are "a transient unit file, created programmatically via
the systemd API. Do not edit."
You can see all systemd units (they form a tree) using "systemctl --user
status".
I'll try to do some experiments with it.

[2] "man systemd.unit" or

Unfortunately it's not a solution, but for the record:
