[SOLVED] Chromium lost the cookies if reboot

I am having the issue that, if I reboot my computer, then all the Chromium cookies lost, which I need to re-login for all the accounts. Found a similar issue https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=216706, but it is old.

Does anyone experience the same issue with the recent version?

Kernel: 4.14.62-1-lts
Chromium: 68.0.3440.106-1
Window Manager: Openbox 3.6.1-4
Gnome Keyring: 1:3.28.2-1

Using

~/.config/chromium-flags.conf
========================
--password-store=gnome

I just noticed this was happening. Went to "Settings" (in Chromium), scrolled down to "Advanced", clicked "Content settings", "Cookies", and "Keep local data only until you quit your browser" was turned on. Turning that off seems to fix it.

I checked. The "Keep local data only until you quite your browser" was off. But it doesn't solve the issue. Finally, I disabled the autostart (some how Chromium desktop file appears at ~/.config/autostart/chromium.desktop).

After reboot, starting Chromium doesn't clear the cookies.
