Seahorse import SSH key fails - invalid format

Can someone help me out with why I can't import one of my SSH keys in to Seahorse? I get the following error when I try:

Couldn't import keys
file:///home/fukawi2/.ssh/privatekey_nwb.dsa: invalid file format

Without posting my private key, here's the format:

-----BEGIN DSA PRIVATE KEY-----
Proc-Type: 4,ENCRYPTED
DEK-Info: DES-EDE3-CBC,F44490FC03F38597

<KEY GOES HERE>
-----END DSA PRIVATE KEY-----

Opening this key using ssh-add works fine, but that's getting annoying having to do that everytime I login.
