Works for me. Care to provide a complete example?
$ cat $PGDATA/pg_hba.conf
...
# IPv4 local connections:
host all all 127.0.0.1/32 md5
# IPv6 local connections:
host all all ::1/128 md5
...
regression=# create user joe password 'joespw';
CREATE ROLE
$ ls -l ~/.pgpass
-rw-------. 1 tgl tgl 25 Jul 25 13:09 /home/tgl/.pgpass
$ cat ~/.pgpass
localhost:*:*:joe:joespw
$ psql -U joe -h localhost regression
psql (10.4)
Type "help" for help.
I can replicate your symptoms if there's not actually a matching
entry in the .pgpass file ...
