The interaction on KDE is likely not tested very well.  For a time kde
users had to use the gnome panel icon, which meant interaction with
gnome-keyring-manager which /should/ work in a KDE environment but
likely doesn't always.

Now there is a knetworkmanager type thing that uses KDE stuff, however I
don't know how well tested or mature that interface to the underlying
service is.  You may just be having bugs with the KDE frontend, and not
the service itself.
