macOS Sierra doesn't automatically authorise network-mapped folders on login?

Having upgraded from El Capitan I've always had mapped network share folders log in automatically (mapping NAS drives to connect to on startup, using System Preferences > Users & Groups > Login Items).

However with macOS Sierra I'm now needing to manually confirm my log in & password for the NAS every time I boot up. Keychain does remember the login information, but it only appears pre-filled, and the network locations aren't automatically mounted on start-up. Every time I boot the machine, I am presented with a "Connect" dialogue with pre-filled passwords. Previously this would all happen automatically with no need to manually intervene with a click to connect for the process to proceed & map the folders.

Does anyone know a way for this to change back to just running automatically as in OSX previously? It is happening on both Macs I have upgraded & hoping there is a setting I can change for this to work.

Thanks in advance.

macOS Sierra (10.12)

This was noticed during the beta testing, but not fixed before release. It might be fixed in the next update...
