The preference on the key is unrelated to what you will use when
signing with that key (though given how often this comes up, I'm
tempted to change it).

Pick the hashes you like, and put a line in your config file listing
those hashes:

  personal-digest-prefs SHA256 RIPEMD160

This will use SHA256 when possible (i.e. when signing with a RSA or
DSA2 key), and RIPEMD160 otherwise.

In your config file:

  default-key (your-keyid-here)
