Any time I start a Brave or Chrome web-browser on my LINUX machine, I see a nasty modal password dialog that prevents the browser from starting up. Here is how to get rid of that dialog, on LINUX.
For Brave browser, open a command terminal and edit the file
sudo gedit /usr/share/applications/brave-browser.desktop
For Chrome browser, it would be
sudo gedit /usr/share/applications/chrome-browser.desktop
Then change the "Exec" line to following:
Exec=/usr/bin/brave-browser --password-store=basic %U
The "--password-store=basic" argument should do the job.
When you restart the bowser now, the nasty password dialog should not appear any more.
You could also copy the /usr/share/applications/brave-browser.desktop file to
$HOME/.local/share/applications and edit it there, that way you avoid the sudo command.

This workaround doesn't help any more with the newest webkit version (Chrome, Brave, ...). Instead you will need to actually unlock your keyring by entering your login-password, or deactivate your automatic login and enter your password on system-startup login screen.
