Description

The Keybase app has stopped prompting me for my login passphrase. When my machine starts up, the app is already open and waiting on my desktop.

Running Lubuntu 16.04.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the Keybase app startup behavior on Lubuntu 16.04 and determine whether the missing login prompt is tied to the desktop startup path. Done means the app no longer opens ready for use without requesting the login passphrase.
