This don't help. Login-shell started from Konsole still has only primary
group.

This appears to be a long-standing bug in ubuntu:

As suggested in the above links, commenting

   # auth    optional        pam_kwallet.so
   # auth    optional        pam_kwallet5.so

in /etc/pam.d/lightdm brought my supplemntary groups back.
