Your gpg-agent is probably caching the passphrase. You can evict the
cache with:
gpgconf --reload gpg-agent
After that, it will prompt you for the passphrase again.

I have been using gpg (GnuPG) 2.1.18 on a debian linux
for several years. In the last few days, I have noticed
that symmetric encryption is not working.
The command
gpg -c --cipher-algo AES testfile
creates testfile.gpg after asking for a passphrase.
However, the command
gpg testfile.gpg
