Interesting, I had to use the same tweak to get both working. When I had an 
older KMail and newpg, I had problems getting the gpg-agent environment 
variable recognised using .xsession and had to put it into startkde. When I 
upgraded KMail and switched to gnupg1.9 (after a change from Mandrake to 
Debian) I had exactly the same problem and the same solution. Ever since, 
signing using MIME has been faultless. Maybe it's just Debian.
