I have upgrade to Mac OS 14 and my smart card reader quit working. Works in safe mode and while booting up. Then stops functioning. Allow Accessories to connect is not visible. However, I can search for the function but not select it. MacBook Air M1, Sonoma Beta.
I saw there was a new Public Release Beta out. Has anyone tried it to see if it resolves this issue? I'm usually able to get my smart card to work in the browser, but soon as it launches a third-party application like Citrix Workspaces, the virtual environment just hangs; as described by someone else in this thread.
Updated to 14.3 Beta. The problem with smart cards has not been resolved. Using the fix, we managed to force SafeNet to see the smart card. But I can't access it through the browser.
I have a slightly different problem on 14.5. The smart card reader connects as I can find it in the system report as attached to USB, but the CARD doesn't read. It will read sometimes, but you have to unplug/plug it in many many times in some cases. It seems that there is a process that is failing somewhere in the chain leaving the system in a bad state.
I'm not on 14.7. Prior stable versions of Sonoma did not exhibit this problem on my Intel-based iMac Pro. Starting with 14.7, I cannot use smart card with Apple software, like Safari, Chrome, VMware, etc.
On the other hand, OpenSC-based software works with smart card fine. And if I load OpenSC PKCS#11 library into Firefox - it accesses the smart card OK too. So, a CryptoTokenKit problem, likely.
