Hi, Why not set
pinentry-program /usr/local/MacGPG2/libexec/pinentry-mac.app/Contents/MacOS/pinentry-mac in gpg-agent.conf? In both of your files there are things with ‘pinentry loopback’. I don’t know what it is, but maybe the first step would be to have a pinentry program actually pop-up? I don’t know what loopback refers to, but I would start to investigate there.
