Thanks for the hint. pinentry-qt was indeed not installed. However, installing 
this did not solve the problem :-(  Following the instructions on 
http://developer.gauner.org/kmail-pgpmime/index.en.html (suggested above by 
Volker Lanz) also did not solve the problem:
$ echo "test" | gpg -ase -r 0xDEADBEEF | gpg
works but kmail still does not ask for a passphrase :-(  :-(  :-(
