No solution, but other ideas...
I use keychain too. When Fedora 25 first came out with Wayland as the
default it did not start a login shell and did not process .bash_profile...
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Common_F25_bugs#GNOME_Wayland_session_does_not_start_a_login_shell.2C_so_does_not_process_.bash_profile_or_.bashrc_etc.
After this was recently fixed...

...I started having the same problem you are having.
Before Wayland, I realized that if I added the openssh-askpass package,
it would provide the GUI to enter pass phrases when using keychain. I
have it installed on the machine in question and it isn't bringing up
the GUI. I wonder if it needs to be updated to recognize Wayland and
present a GUI? Are we typing in a hidden terminal when we are typing
our pass phrases?
