With both Firefox and Qutebrowser I've attempted to use a yubikey inside a "simple sandbox", but the yubikey is not recognized on U2F prompts (yubikey light does not flash) only when I'm running as the sandboxed user (works fine as the default/main user).

What I've tried:
- adding the sandboxed user to the usb, and user (the main user) groups, and retrying after restarting the terminal
- Making a /run/{sandboxed user}/{uid of sandboxed user} directory with appropriate permissions assuming this qutebrowser error may had been related
Code:
WARNING: QStandardPaths: runtime directory '/run/user/1000' is not owned by UID 1003, but a directory permissions 0700 owned by UID 1000 GID 1000


maybe dbus related?
Any ideas :?:

-----------
Solution:
After recompiling net-misc/openssh with the security-key use flag it added the plugdev group to my system which seems to have enabled me to access the yubikey as the 'sandboxed' user after adding that user to the plugdev group :o
thanks to twnqx on #gentoo for this plugdev pointer.
