You are right. If we are only talking about gpg-agent keeping cache
then it will inevitably expire in maximum 2 hours. Those are the
default settings even if you don't set ~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf.

--default-cache-ttl n: Set the time a cache entry is valid to n
seconds. The default is 600 seconds.
--max-cache-ttl n: Set the maximum time a cache entry is valid to n
seconds. The default is 2 hours (7200 seconds).

In a gpg-encrypted kwallet, as along as gpg-agent can keep gpg key
unlocked, it can unlock the kwallet right away even if it locks
itself. Does that make sense.
