[Bug 2061708] [NEW] Yubikey stopped working after noble upgrade

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

In Ubuntu 22.04 I used by GPG key stored on a Yubikey smart card, but
since upgrading to Noble I get the following trying to access it.

$ gpg --card-status
gpg: selecting card failed: No such device 
gpg: OpenPGP card not available: No such device

If I run this as root it works:

$ sudo gpg --card-status
Reader ...........: 1050:0407:X:0
Application ID ...: D2760001240100000006090826160000

If I manually run pcscd.service then it stops working both as root and a
user.

$ sudo pkill -9 scdaemon
$ sudo systemctl start pcscd.service
$ gpg --card-status
gpg: selecting card failed: No such device
gpg: OpenPGP card not available: No such device
$ sudo gpg --card-status
gpg: selecting card failed: No such device
gpg: OpenPGP card not available: No such device

It might be worth mentioning I'm accessing the machine over SSH, so I
also did experiment with a polkit rule like this:

polkit.addRule(function(action, subject) {
    if (action.id == "org.debian.pcsc-lite.access_card" &&
        subject.isInGroup("sudo")) {
        return polkit.Result.YES;
    }
});
polkit.addRule(function(action, subject) {
    if (action.id == "org.debian.pcsc-lite.access_pcsc" &&
        subject.isInGroup("sudo")) {
        return polkit.Result.YES;
    }
});

Added into /etc/polkit-1/rules.d/99-pcscd.rules and then reloading
polkit.service in case this was a polkit issue, but this didn't do
anything.
