Yes, this comes from a time when suspending the system and
network-manager operations wouldn't work otherwise since the session

Thanks for the hints, making sure that I don't start the second daemon
lets everything use the right one and pinentry comes up immediately.

This was then self-inflicted and not a problem in any software involved.
