I managed to get some logs from gpg-agent. No sure how to interpret
this however. No obvious error I can spot (but I don't know what to
look for):<br>

In fact gpg-agent seems to be able to call pinentry-qt, as when I
use pass or browserpass, it works and I get a pretty pinentry
window...<br>
<br>
That said, switching to pinentry-tty does not solve the problem
with pam.<br>
In fact I can see pinentry-tty working with pass and failing with
sudo in the same terminal session:<br>
