You must be using the full GNOME desktop.

I see the same behavior there:

However, under XFCE4, the accelerators are working fine:

Since pinentry-gnome3 uses gcr for the prompter, and the prompter itself
varies depending on the environment it's in, i think this is a bug in
gcr, and not in pinentry-gnome3.  I'm reassigning this bug to gcr, where
i think it belongs.

This has been discussed upstream on the GnuPG mailing lists as well:
