wifi requesting password every access

after recent update which includes kwallet manager, my wifi no longer connects automatically and every access I am prompteded to re-enter the network password. When I launch the kwallet it freezes and nothing I can do to solve the issue. Is there any config file I can change to get an interim solution until the bug is reported and corrected?

What package are you using to manage your network?

Re: wifi requesting password every access

More information about. Running kwalletmanager from the konsole a message is obtained as follows: "kwalletmanager(3443)/kdeui (Wallet): The kwalletd service has been disabled".
The command "systemctl list-unit-files |grep kwalletd" can't get any result, but "pacman -Ql kwallet" lists the following:
kwallet /usr/share/dbus-1/services/org.kde.kwalletd.service
kwallet /usr/share/dbus-1/services/org.kde.kwalletd5.service
How to activate kwalletd service?

Re-raising this issue, as I have the same problem since the upgrade to Plasma 5.

EDIT: actually, this seems to be due to a completely different bug in keyboard handling for password forms by kf5... false alert.
