I have a circuit protected by a GFI circuit breaker that has failed. So far,
I eliminated anything plugged in or switched. Also determined that the
circuit is fine with a standard breaker and draws no current. So, I left it
this way for now.
Its impossible to check the actual wire runs behind the sheetrock. Is there
anything else to check as a possible source of the trouble?

GFI's are not forever. My first suspect would be the GFI itself. Easy
to check by substitution because GFI's are inexpensive -- which is
part of why they aren't forever.
