After a bit of research i found the solution here . The error indicates that PCSC service is not running. For linux, it’s pcscd service.

Start pcscd on systemd based distribution: sudo systemctl start pcscd. If you receive the error:

1

Failed to start pcscd.service: Unit pcscd.service not found.

then you have to install pcscd, e.g. under Ubuntu via sudo apt install pcscd.
