Hi,
depending on mutt installed version you could set this parameter [1] in
mutt configuration file:
[1] http://dev.mutt.org/doc/manual.html#pgp-use-gpg-agent
and fire up gpg-agent within your session.
Let me know if this works.

Thank you for answering.
I use the version from the repos, in Arch Linux.
I'm familiar with gpg-agent, but I really have no need to use it, as I
mentioned before, my key has no passphrase (in this particular box,
anyway). When I use GPG, let's say:
$ gpg -ab somefile.txt
It just creates the signature, and it doesn't prompt me for a
passphrase. I would like mutt to do the same, without running gpg-agent.
It's not such a big deal, but I find it a bit odd that mutt asks for my
_empty_ passphrase.
