These are the same errors I got but they had nothing to do with either
Thunderbird 31 or enigmail (which was on version 1.6 at the time).

I had recently abandoned Windows 7 for linux UbuntuStudio 14.04 and everything
worked fine but the standard gpg issue in the distribution was (and is) 1.4.16.

I decided to install the gnupg 2.0.22 (Ubuntu flavour) and that's when I had the
same errors you have even though I hadn't entered any passphrase (nor even been
asked to provide it).

I removed 2.0.22 and all the errors disappeared.

I'm still trying to pluck up courage to have another go at gnupg2 and then into
smart cards.
