I just had the first problem (Kubuntu 10.10). I believe I followed outdated instructions on the web. I then followed

(sorry, German only) and then pinentry-qt4 worked as expected. Only after reading the tutorial I understood that in an up-to-date KDE4 system, the gpg-agent is automatically started if it is enabled in ~/.gnupg/gpg.conf or ~/.gnupg/options at login time. I also changed the content of ~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf to

# ~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf
pinentry-program /usr/bin/pinentry-qt4
