AFAIK, the nm-applet is trying to access the Gnome-keyring, which is
locked by root permission, so check this link if you wanna get rid of
that annoying message:

In short, you can do this:
$ sudo apt-get install libpam-keyring
$ sudo gedit /etc/pam.d/gdm
and append this to the end:
@include common-pamkeyring
That's it :-)
