I have similiar problem.

Config is simple i3 window manager, so no gnome services running by default
except gnome keyring

when I run gpg-agent either from standard /etc/ xsession or from
.xsessionrc I dont get any pinentry, only immediate failure and it logs
(guru loglevel):

2015-09-25 12:21:12 gpg-agent[23399] starting a new PIN Entry
2015-09-25 12:21:12 gpg-agent[23399] DBG: connection to PIN entry
established
2015-09-25 12:21:12 gpg-agent[23399] DBG: error calling pinentry: Operacja
anulowana <Pinentry>
2015-09-25 12:21:12 gpg-agent[23399] failed to unprotect the secret key:
Operacja anulowana
2015-09-25 12:21:12 gpg-agent[23399] failed to read the secret key
2015-09-25 12:21:12 gpg-agent[23399] ssh sign request failed: Operacja
anulowana <Pinentry>
2015-09-25 12:21:12 gpg-agent[23399] ssh request handler for sign_request
(13) ready

(Operacja anulowana is "operation cancelled" in english)

but when I kill the daemon and run it from X11's terminal and then try to
connect (after setting correct env of couse) I get pinentry correctly
