Hanging Nitrokey when switching between nitrocli and GnuPG

[robinkrahl]

You already mentioned this problem in this a request:

Btw., this has bugged me for ages: does your nitrokey "hang" frequently? E.g., when I am using gpg and then nitrocli the red light just stays on and the key won't do anything or take ages to respond (sometimes it just responds with garbage after a long time). I have to disconnect and reconnect (physically) to get it into a working state again. I am still on firmware version 0.47 (but plan to upgrade soon). I think later today I can check whether my testing stick has the same problem.

I could not reproduce this at the time (as I only used my Storage for development and my Pro for GnuPG), but since I use nitrocli on my Pro too, I experience the same problem. Today I managed to reproduce it. This is a tracking issue for the upstream issue.

I don't see what we can do here on the nitrocli side of things. @szszszsz has been able to reproduce the issue, confirmed it has to do with the firmware, and seemingly gotten somewhat closer to a solution. I gather we can't do much other than wait. Closing.
