I think the root of the problem is that GPG can't find pinentry.
With Guix, it should work automatically if you install GPG and a
pinentry to your user's profile. [0]
When installed via config.scm, you should set "pinentry-program" with
the right path, either on gpg-agent's command line or in
~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf.
[0] See 'gnu/packages/patches/gnupg-default-pinentry.patch' of commit
e5b44b06b3f, which fixed a longstanding UX bug
