I think that more or less everyone should have "use-agent" line in their
~/.gnupg/gpg.conf file because then gpg-agent daemon is started
automatically by /etc/X11/Xsession.d/90gpg-agent script, at least in
Debian GNU/Linux systems.
GnuPG 2 (gpg2) always uses the agent for key management but if gpg-agent
daemon is not running it is launched temporarily.

I'd guess that that this is a gpg-agent issue too.
