Interesting, thanks.

In the past when I've had issues similar to yours it turns out to be
the Gnome Keyring's GPG agent causing trouble[1] since it doesn't
support smartcards. However, that doesn't seem to be the case with
your issue (if it was, the command would mention "keyring" rather than
"gpg-agent").

Perhaps others have a better idea what's going on?

Cheers!
