The correct way to fix this issue is not to comment out the lines
mentioning kwallet, but to make the modules silent by prepending a '-'
(dash) to each line. Example:

# /etc/pam.d/lightdm
-auth    optional        pam_kwallet.so
-auth    optional        pam_kwallet5.so
-session optional        pam_kwallet.so auto_start
-session optional        pam_kwallet5.so auto_start

Same in /etc/pam.d/lightdm-greeter.

This feature is mentioned in the pam.conf(5) manpage:

       If the type value from the list above is prepended with a - character
       the PAM library will not log to the system log if it is not possible to
       load the module because it is missing in the system. This can be useful
       especially for modules which are not always installed on the system and
       are not required for correct authentication and authorization of the
       login session.
