    (based on these two blog entries and inspired by Fedora-Blog)
First install pam_kwallet:
sudo zypper in pam_kwallet

Then edit the files /etc/pam.d/passwd, /etc/pam.d/login and /etc/pam.d/sddm as follows, i.e. add the lines beginning with a - (the hyphens are valid PAM syntax to reduce log entries if these PAM modules should not exist) and ending with the ### comment:
/etc/pam.d/passwd :
#%PAM-1.0
auth     include        common-auth
-auth optional pam_kwallet5.so kdehome=.local/share  # Add this line
account  include        common-account
password include        common-password
session  include        common-session

/etc/pam.d/login :
#%PAM-1.0
auth     requisite      pam_nologin.so
auth     include        common-auth
account  include        common-account
password include        common-password
session  required       pam_loginuid.so
session  include        common-session
#session  optional       pam_lastlog.so nowtmp showfailed
session  optional       pam_mail.so standard
-session optional pam_kwallet5.so auto_start  # Add this line

/etc/pam.d/sddm :
#%PAM-1.0
-auth optional pam_kwallet5.so kdehome=.local/share  # Add this line
auth     include        common-auth
account  include        common-account
password include        common-password
session  required       pam_loginuid.so
session  include        common-session
-session optional pam_kwallet5.so auto_start  # Add this line

Now log out and in again to see if you do not have to type in your kwallet password.
