GNOME keyring not working

I installed

gnome-keyring

and followed the steps for "PAM method" listed in the wiki, however, whenever I try to ssh to somewhere that has my key, I get this lovely message in my system log:

Jan 18 12:05:02 trinity dbus-daemon[1080]: Activating service name='org.gnome.keyring.SystemPrompter'
Jan 18 12:05:02 trinity org.gnome.keyring.SystemPrompter[1080]: Unable to init server: Could not connect: Connection refused
Jan 18 12:05:02 trinity org.gnome.keyring.SystemPrompter[1080]: (gcr-prompter:1639): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:
Jan 18 12:05:02 trinity dbus-daemon[1080]: Activated service 'org.gnome.keyring.SystemPrompter' failed: Process org.gnome.keyring.SystemPrompter exited with status 1
Jan 18 12:05:02 trinity gnome-keyring-daemon[1031]: couldn't create system prompt: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ChildExited: Process org.gnome.keyring.SystemPrompter exited with status 1

Obviously, gnome keyring has no idea what my DISPLAY is! Additionally, executing the lines in my .xinitrc (listed on the gnome keyring wiki page), I get this message:

bash: SSH_AUTH_SOCK=/run/user/1000/keyring/ssh: No such file or directory

Any help would be appreciated, here is what I have tried thus far:

• Using lightdm (I normally use slim)

• libgnome-keyring is installed

• I have double checked the modifications to files in /etc/pam.d and they are correct

• In seahorse, attempting to unlock the keyring creates the same message to the system log
