The following *might* help

http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/keychain-environment.el

The emacs Keychain package correctly read the running agent "token" or
"cookie" and doesnt rely on env values.

Other things to consider are the contents of ~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf.

For me:-

,----
| pinentry-program /usr/bin/pinentry-gtk-2
| no-grab
| default-cache-ttl       3942000
| max-cache-ttl           3942000
`----

Now, an interesting thing .. I am pretty damn sure I had a line
"use-agent" in my gpg.conf. Its not there now. Instead is a comment from
seahorse. Gah. Debian gpg key handling remains a mystery ... There seems
about a gazillion packages or approaches to dealing with this.
