Well, the first order problem I'm seeing here is that SSH_AUTH_SOCK is
set to /run/user/1000/keyring/ssh so GnuPG isn't getting a look in.

This does nothing visible with regard to SSH.

Whenever I've had to fix this before half the problem is that GnuPG
doesn't provide a SSH agent if something else is doing it so the usual
problem is getting rid of GNOME keyring, after that's gone the problem
is normally resolved.
