Linux update alsa-usm-conf broke BW USB handshack this morning

I just wanted to share something that may happen to other linux users here on FF. My BW extension 2024.11.0 got broken this morning when my linux OS updated the following file: alsa-csm-conf during a routine update. I could enter my credentials BUT use of my Yubi created a white blank screen on my browser. I operate on a VM so I went back to yesterday’s snapshot (love virtual machines) and everything was working perfectly again.

Next I decided to update again to today’s OS currency, but this time I rebooted after the update to check that. BAM its working fine. So if you are on linux and take that routine file I mentioned above it will break the extension UNTIL you reboot. The terminal gave no notice that I needed to reboot, but it worked fine testing this twice now.

Just an FYI post. Never happened before.
