gpg-agent not caching smartcard PINs

Hi,
(sorry for bringing this up again, but it is not fixed, so :-) )
When signing stuff with the subkey from my OpenPGP-Smartcard, the
gpg-daemon will ask gtk-pinentry to ask me for my PIN. A subsequent
signing will ask for the PIN again, although I expect gpg-daemon to
cache it. How do I fix that?
gpg-agent is running and is used. I checked using pstree: the
gtk-pinenty that is asking for my pin was indeed started by gpg-agent.
Same procedure with my primary key (using ! when specifying the keyid)
will ask for the passphrase only once.
~ $ cat ~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf
pinentry-program /usr/lib/pinentry/pinentry-gtk
debug 64
The signature key on the card is a subkey for my primary key in my
keyring:
~ $ gpg -K
/home/jojo/.gnupg/secring.gpg

My versions are, both the stock debian unstable packages:
gnupg 1.4.0-3
gnupg-agent 1.9.15-1
Do you need more informations?
Thanks,
