I am running Ubuntu 22.04 with GNOME on a Dell XPS 13.
I use the fingerprint as the main identification method, so I don't have to type the password each time I use
The expected behavior is to log in using the fingerprint and then be asked for my password only once right after log in. My problem is that more often than not I am not asked for the password after log in, so the keyring is not unlocked.
I have to log out and then log in again after waiting for fingerprint identification time out or using the wrong finger so I can enter the password and unlock the keyring. The behaviour is unpredictable. Is there a way to troubleshoot it or to unlock the keyring after login? EDIT Just to add more information, when I try to unlock the keyring using seahorse, the "unlock" button does not work.
