Ow, Maybe I should have mantioned that I use gpg-agent to start my X windowmanager (fvwm2) and run my applications from there.

Of course, gpg-agent does work, I am able to sign/decrypt and even login using gpg-agent, no problem. But apperently, no caching is going on.

In the mean time I've moved most of gpg-agent options to gpg-agent.conf with the same effect.
