Have you set a FIDO2 PIN?  
_FIDO2 != OnlyKey PIN and is entered on the keyboard._

More info:  
[ssh-with-fido2-how-to-set-up-which-pin-code](https://onlykey.discourse.group/t/ssh-with-fido2-how-to-set-up-which-pin-code/749/2)  
[cant-setup-onlykey-as-2fa-device-with-ssh-keys](https://onlykey.discourse.group/t/cant-setup-onlykey-as-2fa-device-with-ssh-keys/1147/2)

I don’t know which disti you use.  
You may have to reinstall onlykey-cli & onlykey-agent according to [PEP 668](https://onlykey.discourse.group/t/python-interpreters-marked-externally-managed-since-debian-12-bookworm/1163).
