I am using gpg (GnuPG) 2.2.19. However, the problem is solved. I just had to run ssh-keygen before running gpg --full-generate-key --expert (even though I am using gpg-agent and not ssh-agent). The primary key only allows Certify. Subkey allows Sign Encrypt Authenticate. Manually writing to ~/.gnupg/sshcontrol and ~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf did not work. I had to enable-ssh-support >> ~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf. Not sure why this weird behavior. But this is what I needed to do to get it working.
