The reason a gets a single type is the monomorphism restriction (read
the report).
Using NoMonomorphismRestriction your example with a works fine.
Could you explain why, under NoMonomorphismRestriction, this typechecks:

let a = 1 in (a + (1 :: Int),a + (1 :: Float))

while this not:

foo :: Num a => a -> (Int,Float)
foo k = (k + (1 :: Int), k + (1.0 :: Float))

Thanks!
