Reproducibility: Happens every time most of the proxy settings are provided via the NetworkSettings API, which is based on a NetworkSettings.ProxyCredentialsProvider implementation - either the NB default or some other provided by a particular platform application. unfortunatelly, the ProxyCredentialsProvider.getProxyPassword(...) method does not have an equivalent in NetworkSettings and the keyring based NetworkSettings.getKeyForAuthenticationPassword() is meant to be used instead.
see issue #253369 the jdev NetworkSettings.ProxyCredentialsProvider impl isn't based on keyring
