Mac Version of pass not asking for gpg ID?

[GOYOT Martin]

I don't know what you know about GPG, so I will just go through a basic
explaination:

Your GPG key is a password by itself. It is supposed to remain secret,
never share it. But as a mean of security when you create your GPG key, you
may provide a password to encrypt it.

* When you do the pass init, you tell pass which GPG key to use as a
password.
* When you do a pass insert something, pass asks you twice the password you
want to insert into the storage to be sure you do not make a mistake when
typing it. This password you inserted is then encrypted using your GPG key.
    * If this GPG key is itself encrypted, you gpg agent will prompt you
for a password to unencrypt the gpg key in order to use it as a password
    * If this GPG key is not encrypted, then gpg will directly use it as
the password

In my understanding you are in the case with an unencrypted GPG key.
