I double checked behavior on my side. My problem persists independently
of "pcscd" being started or not. Also restarting "pcscd" does not fix
anything.

At first, I wrongly believed that restarting "pcscd" would fix it
because I did that by switching to a root login in the text console
(using CTRL+ALT+F1). But it wasn't the "service pcscd restart" command
that unblocked Firefox. It was the CTRL+ALT+F1 and CTRL+ALT+F9.

Can you double check as well?
