Well, if kdewallet.salt is be copied to its usual location,

/home/$USER/.local/share/kwalletd/kdewallet.salt,

but without the encrypted home being mounted, then it works for me. So this
seems like a viable workaround and may also point to what is going wrong.

What happens for me sometimes is that pam_mount fails and I get thrown into an
uninitialized Plasma session. For this session, some files are autocreated.
Among them kdewallet.kwl and kdewallet.salt in the usual location (as above).
It could be that these empty/wrong files are what causes the issue. I haven't
tested this yet, as removing them would not be robust against the problem of
pam_mount failing sometimes.
