Problem decrypting a mail with an OpenPGP card

Hello,
I've got three mails (from the same person) with my signed key (one for
each uid). I can decrypt two of the three mails but not the third:
$ gpg broken-gpg.mail
gpg: sending command `SCD PKDECRYPT' to agent failed: ec=6.131
gpg: encrypted with 1024-bit RSA key, ID AF58F2B4, created 2006-03-13
"Michael Bienia <michael at vorlon.ping.de>"
gpg: public key decryption failed: general error
gpg: decryption failed: secret key not available
$ gpg2 broken-gpg.mail
gpg: encrypted with 1024-bit RSA key, ID AF58F2B4, created 2006-03-13
"Michael Bienia <michael at vorlon.ping.de>"
gpg: public key decryption failed: Conditions of use not satisfied
gpg: decryption failed: No secret key
gpg is version 1.4.6, gpg2 is version 2.0.4 and I'm running Ubuntu
feisty. I'm using the gpg-agent but I've also tried without the agent
but it failed also.
What could be the problem?
Here is the output for one of the working mails:
$ gpg2 -vv good-gpg.mail
