I notice that when I re-boot into Fedora-22 I am asked for my kdewallet password; but when I boot into Fedora-21 I am not asked for this.
This isn't a serious inconvenience, as I don't re-boot often. But I'd be interested to know the reason for it.
I seem to recall that this occurred in some older Fedora versions.
I'm not sure will this help, but 'sddm' (login/display manger) supports unlocking kwallet password on login (I guess password for wallet need to be the same as for user login), so if you use 'sddm' this should work, and it most likely won't work on auto-login setups (impossible?). SDDM is default login/display manager on >=f21, before that it was KDM. All of this involves PAM as I understand it. I have this working on a few systems, but I also saw people reporting that if they have gnome-keyring and kwallet configured (I guess for PAM, login ... (not sure how this works)) that it breaks kwallet support or something like that, both cannot work properly at the same time, not sure why or if this was fixed because I never used both at the time.
