I am also having this problem. Same scenario:

1. Fresh install to 16.04.
2. Import public keys using menu in seahorse.
3. Keys do not appear in seahorse but can be listed using gpg –list-keys (from gpg(1) )
4. Importing the keys from CLI with gpg2 (gpg2 –import-keys <file>) and the keys will appear in seahorse.

So it appears that the import function in seahorse is using gpg(1) but the viewing of keys is pointing to gpg2.

I cannot confirm whether Evolution or Thunderbird sees keys as I do not use them.
