I'm using neomutt for a multi-account setup with:

    alternates "@(alea.gnuu|jo-so).de"
    set from="joerg at jo-so.de"
    set reverse_name
    set edit_headers
    set fast_reply
    set crypt_replysign
    unset crypt_use_gpgme
    set pgp_use_gpg_agent

    send2-hook .			unset pgp_default_key
    send2-hook '~f @jo-so\.de'		set pgp_default_key = 7D2C9A23D1AEA375

    set pgp_sign_command="gpg %?p?--pinentry-mode loopback --passphrase-fd 0? --no-verbose --batch --quiet --output - --armor --textmode %?a? --local-user %a? \${pgp_key_url:+--sig-keyserver-url \$pgp_key_url }--detach-sign %f"
    set pgp_encrypt_sign_command="/usr/lib/neomutt/pgpewrap gpg %?p?--pinentry-mode loopback --passphrase-fd 0? --batch -q --no-verbose -t -o - %?a? --local-user %a? -a -s -e \${pgp_key_url:+--sig-keyserver-url \$pgp_key_url }--trust-model always -- --recipient %r -- %f"
    send2-hook .				setenv pgp_key_url https://jo-so.de/pgp-key-alea.txt
    send2-hook '~f @jo-so\.de'		setenv pgp_key_url https://jo-so.de/pgp-key.txt

    # http://josefsson.org/openpgp-header/draft-josefsson-openpgp-mailnews-header.txt

    send2-hook .			'my_hdr OpenPGP: id=C1ED266701F55480\; url=https://jo-so.de/pgp-key-alea.txt\; preference=signencrypt'
    send2-hook '~f @jo-so\.de'		'my_hdr OpenPGP: id=7D2C9A23D1AEA375\; url=https://jo-so.de/pgp-key.txt\; preference=signencrypt'

For this you have to use the *send2-hook*.

Maybe you're facing this problem: https://github.com/neomutt/neomutt/issues/1404
