ioctl USBDEVFS_SETINTERFACE returns EPROTO when using scdaemon on NixOS

### Describe the bug

On NixOS, ioctl USBDEVFS_SETINTERFACE returns EPROTO when using scdaemon with Yubikey smart card. It used to be fine on older versions, but I'm not sure which version specifically broke this. At least on the initial version that has usb passthrough works perfectly.

### To Reproduce

1. Use NixOS 25.11 (arm64) with package `gnupg`
2. Connect Yubikey (with smart card configured)
3. Use `orb usb attach <id>` to attach the device
4. Run command `gpg-connect-agent 'scd serialno' /bye`
5. Command outputs: `ERR 100696144 No such device <SCD>`

### Expected behavior

Command `gpg-connect-agent 'scd serialno' /bye` should not produce an error, and `gpg --card-status` should correctly reads smart card information and can be used for signing.
