Public bug reported:

it's not possible to add keys from security devices with ssh-agent which is running from Ubuntu session. I'm trying to use authentication with Rainbow iKey 3000 token with OpenSC. When I after login type into terminal this:
ssh-add -s /usr/lib/opensc-pkcs11.so
and after that I type PIN to the token, I get:
SSH_AGENT_FAILURE
Could not add card: /usr/lib/opensc-pkcs11.so

When I run new ssh-agent in terminal, set env variables, this command
works OK - load keys from the token and I'm able to authenticate with
keys in them. So whole openssh agent is working OK but I think that
there is somewhere bug when Ubuntu running this agent after login.
