Control key propmt when using with dmenu/rofi about gopass HOT 3 OPEN

Which OS, which window manager, which version of rofi, gopass and gpg?

And most importantly which pinentry is used?

This sounds like a case where the pinentry is terminal only, so it works when gpg agent has had a chance to cache the PIN but doesn't work otherwise.

You can try running the rofi command directly in your terminal to see if something is printed in each step too, e.g.:
gopass ls --flat | dmenu
should print the name of the entry you selected, does it work?

The other option would be to try and enable debug logging by setting the env variable GOPASS_DEBUG_LOG to a file and see what it says in there.

Oh, thanks already for answering. I'm using pinentry-gtk2 (pinentry) 1.2.1 with gopass 1.15.5 go1.20.5 linux amd64 and gpg-agent (GnuPG) 2.4.0. I'll try the GOPASS_DEBUG_LOG and also echo debug-pinentry >> ~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf and get back to you.
Do you know if there is a way to trigger a timeout of the key unlock (after the key was entered correctly it doesn't ask again for some time, similar to sudo)? That would reduce the wait testing.

Yes, gpg agent will cache it.

You can check your

default-cache-ttl
max-cache-ttl

settings in your gpg-agent.conf the default is 600 and 7200 seconds respectively.
