Everytime I am unlocking a keyring (seahorse), there is a checkbox
"Automatically unlock this keyring whenever I'm logged in".

Now the issue is that I most certainly don't want this to be autochecked or pre-checked.

I am looking for a way to either:

  1. disable the auto check (so the checkbox is NOT checked by default)
  2. remove this option to automatically unlock completely

I only found answers/questions relating to these topics which are NOT the purpose of this Q:

  1. checkbox missing - Gnome-keyring: "Automatically unlock this key whenever I'm logged in"
  2. how to autounlock - The login keyring did not get unlocked when you logged into your computer
  3. how to remove the lock - How can I stop being prompted to unlock the 'default' keyring on boot?

To be clear: I want to ALWAYS type the password (I want to ALWAYS have the keyring locked) so I want to prevent any unwanted auto-unlocking ahead.

You don't need to limit yourself to ubuntu instructions as gnome-keyring is used across multiple distros that use gnome.

I found this https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/GNOME/Keyring

If you desire to skip the PAM step, the default keyring must be unlocked manually or via another method. See #Launching gnome-keyring-daemon outside desktop environments (KDE, GNOME, XFCE, ...) and the GnomeKeyring wiki.

Is that what your looking for?
