[pass] adding gpg keys?

[George Angelopoulos]

Well, that explains the mystery!

I didn't remember '--reencrypt' was a thing because I started using
multiple IDs only recently.
If you can install the current version (1.6.3) it will work as I
described previously and that will solve your problem.
The manual for the current version is here [1]. If installing 1.6.3 is
not an option, I'm not sure what other options you have.
