This is what I could find from the output of that command that seemed
relevant for gpg:

1878 -                                        /usr/sbin/pcscd
2666 adm,cdrom,sudo,dip,plugdev,lpadmin,samba /usr/bin/gpg-agent
--daemon --sh
--write-env-file=/home/jan/.gnupg/gpg-agent-info-Sibelius /usr/bin/dbus-launch
--exit-with-session x-session-manager
2683 adm,cdrom,sudo,dip,plugdev,lpadmin,samba mate-keyring-daemon
--start --components=gpg
2781 adm,cdrom,sudo,dip,plugdev,lpadmin,samba /usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon
--start --components=gpg

As you can see, there are no entries for scdaemon. I've attached the
full output for reference. 

If I run scdaemon manually (scdaemon --daemon), this is the entry from
the ps-command:

7592 adm,cdrom,sudo,dip,plugdev,lpadmin,samba scdaemon --daemon

Is the solution such that I need to get the scdaemon to be a part of
the group "pcscd"?
