I also periodically get these prompts. I am on Jessie/Testing. Since I use keepassx to store my passwords, I am never able to fill in the prompt because no other applications are usable while the prompt is open (I find this to be a major design flaw). As I can't predict when the password prompt will appear, I have never filled it in. Evolution already has my account info through Gnome Online Accounts, and should not need it again.
I would be quite interested in finding out how to make these prompts stop (and in fixing the gnome keyring password prompt issue in gnome shell).
