Description:
MySQL Workbench won't store passwords although gnome-keyring (seahorse) is installed.

Additional info:
mysql-worbench version - 1:5.2.34-1

no special output when run from terminal:

[ottoshmidt@myhost ~]$ mysql-workbench
Log levels '0111000'
Ready.

How to repeat:
1. establish connection to server and check to store password
2. close workbench and reopen
3. open existing connection and it will ask for password again

gnome keyring daemon was not started properly.. as I understand.
