Hm, I cannot reproduce this problem, either on latest stable or unstable...

I see similar behavior, but not the same, on a Budgie VM running unstable, updated. It was created with the 4.4 ISO.
After rebooting, I see "Unlock Login Keyring"

@goldenfri , please let us know if this is the password prompt you see. If it's different, can you attach a screenshot, if possible? Thanks.

In any case, this may need to be reported to the Budgie tracker.

Manually unlocking the keyring is expecting behavior if you have auto-login enabled. If you login with a PW then the keyring will unlock automatically with that PW if the PW is the same. When you don't have to login then you will need to manually unlock the keyring

I'm getting a segfault when trying to enable auto login

repo: stable
the system is newly installed and up to date
