Do you have a standard wallet set in the control center (Security & Privacy -> Digital Wallet)? That's been the reason for this problem on my system, there was nothing defined. I created a new wallet with the new button (I called it kdewallet, I guess that's the standard name anyway) and set it as standard wallet. (I didn't report a bug because I was manually messing with my config files at the time and I still think that's what caused it...) Christian.
