Hello James,
this should not be triggered by Déjà Dup, but by a combination of a file
/etc/X11/Xsession.d/90gpg-agent together with an entry "use-agent"
inside of ~/.gnupg/gpg.conf.
Can you check, if the file /etc/X11/Xsession.d/90gpg-agent does exist at
your system and if your ~/.gnupg/gpg.conf does include use-agent please?
I will move this bug report over to the Downstream Triagers of the
ubuntu package gnupg-agent, which may ask more questions about this.

Bug description:
Some have reported problems before with repeated demands for
encryption passwords, but mine gives a different error. I've deleted
all my previous backups and reinstalled duplicity and deja-dup, but I
still get the error:
