It's not actual balsa hang but it very much feels like one
 - ssh window where balsa is started gets fully working ascii dialogue, if 
dealt with (passphrase or smlr) balsa window resumes working ..

Something like ->

        ┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
        │ Please enter the passphrase to unlock the OpenPGP secret key:  │
        │                                                                │
        │ Passphrase: __________________________________________________ │
        │         <OK>                                    <Cancel>       │
        └────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

Every other 'popup' window works fine so this very much could be gpg config 
problem, just that I don't know how to fix that .. yet.
