I thought that these were files/dirs:

But now I see that it's the output of "pass" (never used "pass" or
auth-source-pass before).

So probably the files are good, and it was really
auth-source-forget-all-cached that helped (auth-source-pass-enable does
nothing more than modifying auth-sources and calling it).
