When encrypting an entry in org-mode using symmetric encryption 

and gpg 2.2, emacs just hangs there on 'Saving file'.

Tried running a backtrace using emacs -Q, but no errors generated, 

it just hangs there. 

There is nothing wrong with gpg, I can encrypt/decrypt from the command 

line just fine, and when viewing files with gpg extension, it correctly 

decrypts it and the decrypted contents are viewable in the buffer. But 

when saving a modified file with encryption, emacs just hangs there.
