MATE Keyring won't auto-unlock

I have both MATE and Fluxbox installed, and I cannot get the MATE keyring to auto-unlock in either one.

I tried everything I have seen, and I have the following files in /etc/pam.d

login:

#%PAM-1.0

auth       required     pam_securetty.so
auth       requisite    pam_nologin.so
auth	   sufficient	pam_fingerprint-gui.so
auth       optional     pam_mate_keyring.so
auth       include      system-local-login
account    include      system-local-login
session    include      system-local-login
session    optional	pam_mate_keyring.so	auto_start

slim:

#%PAM-1.0

auth       requisite    pam_nologin.so
auth	   sufficient	pam_fingerprint-gui.so
auth        include     system-local-login
auth        optional    pam_mate_keyring.so
account     include     system-local-login
session     include     system-local-login
session     optional    pam_mate_keyring.so auto_start

passwd:

#%PAM-1.0
#password	required	pam_cracklib.so difok=2 minlen=8 dcredit=2 ocredit=2 retry=3
#password	required	pam_unix.so sha512 shadow use_authtok
password	required	pam_unix.so sha512 shadow nullok
password	optional	pam_mate_keyring.so

Everytime I login, I have to unlock the keyring.  Why?

In ~/.fluxbox/startup I have the following (as well as other lines):

# /usr/lib/polkit-mate/polkit-mate-authentication-agent-1 &
/usr/lib/fingerprint-gui/fingerprint-polkit-agent -d &
/usr/lib/mate-settings-daemon/mate-settings-daemon &

/usr/bin/mate-keyring-daemon --start --components=ssh &
/usr/bin/mate-keyring-daemon --start --components=secrets &
/usr/bin/mate-keyring-daemon --start --components=gpg &
/usr/bin/mate-keyring-daemon --start --components=pkcs11 &

Why won't the MATE keyring unlock when I login?

P.S. Yes, I am using my fingerprint scanner to login.  That works fine.  Does the order of the lines matter?  Should I put the keyring line *before* the fingerprint line?

By the way, I'm using SLiM as my login manager.
