I was able to solve this specific behavior by replacing tty with the console mv /dev/tty /dev/tty.bak ln -s /dev/console /dev/tty after which gpg --decrypt /etc/keys/varkey.gpg prompts for the passphrase and then decrypts the key to the screen as expected. Unfortunately this did not alter the behavior of losetup losetup -e aes128 -K /etc/keys/varkey.gpg /dev/loop6 /dev/sda6 which still fails with the 'gpg file decryption failed' message. Since gpg now appears to be able to behave correctly, perhaps there is something about the way it is being called by losetup -K?
