It appears that pinentry-gnome3 is listed as task: ubuntu-desktop, and so it should have been installed to handle this, yet it has not. The ubuntu-desktop package does not depend on it so it looks like a problem with meta.

Now it fails saying the passphrase is invalid ( without prompting ) This seems to be because we used to use gnome-keyring with gpg support enabled, but gnome-keyring is run without gpg enabled, and so gpg-agent is started, but without the required switches to use pinentry to prompt for the passphrase, so it only works for command line gpg, not gui apps like thunderbird/enigmail.
