I see no reason why it should only work with sddm. There's a bunch of 
folks using sway and other compositors without using the full GNOME or 
KDE stack and they have been using these applications for many many 
years, and some of them can take advantage of the keyring/wallet.

Thanks Chris for the documentation.

Based on the fix done for GNOME keyring and what sddm ships I guess it 
should look like this:
----------------------------------------------------
Name: KDE Wallet Daemon - Login keyring management
Default: yes
Priority: 0
Auth-Type: Additional
Auth:
	optional     pam_kwallet5.so
Session-Type: Additional
Session-Interactive-Only: yes
Session:
	optional     pam_kwallet5.so auto_start
----------------------------------------------------

Regards.
