Use

  GPGME_DEBUG=9:logfile: yourprogram

to see what is going on.

Let us konow why you think it is incorrect.  For example scdaemon is by
default installed to /usr/local/libexec - which is correct according to
some file system standards but not by all.  But it does not matter all
tools starting at the gpgme library have a consistent view of which
components are to be run.

Decrypt by hand (i.e. "gpg -v -d ....") to check additional diagnostics.
If that doe not help, configure a log file for gpg-agent.
