Normally you have to sync the remote to the car when you change the battery. You should be able to lock and unlock the driver's door and disable the alarm with the key.
First of all you need to programm all ignition keys using suitable diagnostic equipment (VAS, VAG-Com) connected to the data link connector of the car. You have an electronic immobilizer key recognition problem. Now your key chip is not recognized by the transponder antenna fitted on the ignition switch barrel.
Everytime when you had a new key you must programm all available ignition car keys before trying to start the engine with this new key !!!
This warning lamp indicates that the engine is locked by the immobilizer system, and the engine start sequence must be repeat again.
From year 1995 in Audi-VW (VAG) cars is used engine immobilizer. The VAG group immobilizer system consists of an immobilizer ECU which controls the recognition of keys and the Engine Management ECU system. Immobilizer is activated when the ignition key is removed and, together with the engine control unit, largely prevents unauthorized starting of the engine. The system uses a transmitter and receiver unit in the ignition key (transponder). Whenever an attempt is made to start the engine, it transmits a new code to the car's electronics. The immobilizing is only cancelled and car motor electronic receives permission to start engine if the key sends a right authorization code.

Use another ignition key that you have, and start the engine.

But did you try howling at the moon with an aluminum-foil cone on your head and turning around 3 times? ;)
It sounds to me like it is time to have your computer systems scanned for fault codes. Most of the immobilizer system "fixes" posted online are temporary at best. (like the 10 minute time-out thing. That only works for certain types of failures when the system does not recognize your key on the first try. Even then, it doesn't fix anything, it only delays the inevitable for a while).
This could be something as simple as a shorted battery cell causing the computers to do crazy things, all the way to a failed control module or bad ignition switch. The only way to find out for sure is to ask the computer system that controls it.
