You have actually got a kwallet? It should be in
~/.kde/share/apps/kwallet

and the kde default file name is kdewallet.kwl

If it's not there, use kwalletmanager to create a new wallet with the default 
name, then it should work.

BTW on my home computer I've used a different.kwl name for my wallet, then 
found the KDE setting somewhere to make it use that instead of the normal 
name. Then, I can have the normal, default wallet name on my laptop and any 
other computers I use, plus copy my other wallet file onto these machines as 
is and have all my bank account etc. passwords available without messing up 
WPA etc settings on the laptop machine.
