Try running Keychain First Aid in Keychain Access 
(/Applications/Utilities/ by default). From help:

Solving problems with keychains

If you have some experience administering computers, you may be able to 
identify and resolve some keychain problems by using Keychain First 
Aid.

  With Keychain First Aid, you can:

	▪ 	 Verify and repair keychain settings and permissions
	▪ 	 Reset a keychain (delete a keychain reference while preserving the 
keychain file)
	▪ 	 Make the login keychain password the same as the login password
	▪ 	 Set the login keychain as the default keychain
	▪ 	 Set the login keychain to always remain unlocked

  To use Keychain First Aid:

In Keychain Access, choose Window > Keychain First Aid.

  Click Options to see the Keychain First Aid settings listed above.
