GPG Plugin - "Sign on Send" problem

Hello all,
I found that the gpg plugin v2.1 did not work with my SM 1.4.21 on a
Fedora 13 system - so I requested the testing version from Paul which he
very kindly (and speedily!) sent me.
I removed v2.1 and installed v2.1.1.
I have uploaded my keys (secret and public) and assigned a signing key.
Encryption and decryption now work perfectly (after a limited amount of
testing) - and even the "Encrypt and Sign Now" option works properly.
I have a problem however with the "Sign on Send" option.
Each time I try to use this option I get the following error:
================8<======================================================
Your Request to Encrypt on Send encountered a problem, details below:
Errors:
no default secret key: bad passphrase
[stdin]: clearsign failed: bad passphrase
BAD PASSWORD: Incorrect or missing password!
GPG Plugin: gpg returned a non-clean return value of: 2
GPG Plugin: gpg returned a non-clean return value of: 2
Cyphertext not generated due to errors. Your plaintext has been
preserved.
================8<======================================================
Note 1: The error says "Encrypt on Send" failed, but I can assure you it
was the "Sign on Send" option that I selected.
Note 2: It says "no default secret key". I do have a signing key
selected and in fact the "Encrypt and Sign Now" option asks me for the
passphrase and correctly signs (and encrypts) the message prior to
sending.
Note 3: The Messages relating to passphrase / password. - It did NOT
ask me for a passphrase!
So - in summary - everything seems to work just fine except the feature
that I have most need of - plain text signing on send!
Have I done anything wrong?
If not, is there any other information I can provide to help solve this
problem.
With thanks in advance...
Mark
