What I ended up doing was per the Arch wiki. Creating the
file /etc/profile.d/gpg-agent.sh with the following:
/#!/bin/sh
envfile="${HOME}/.gnupg/gpg-agent.env"
if test -f "$envfile" && kill -0 $(grep GPG_AGENT_INFO "$envfile" |
cut -d: -f 2) 2>/dev/null; then eval "$(cat "$envfile")"
else
     eval "$(gpg-agent --daemon --write-env-file "$envfile")"
fi
export GPG_AGENT_INFO  # the env file does not contain the export
statement/
This did the trick for me.
I applied your trick: it also works on Xfce.
