Bug Description

I tried to access my banking card for the first time since upgrading to Precise Pengolin, but the system behaved somewhat strange:
When i plug the reader into the USB port I usually get a LED flashing a few times and some info about the device and its firmware version. I saw this today as well, but instead of waiting for actions from the banking software the display fell dead again and I couldn't do my banking.
I investigates a bit and found this in syslog every time I plugged in the reader:

May 25 21:50:00 host kernel: [ 8119.920068] usb 2-2: new full-speed USB device number 9 using uhci_hcd
May 25 21:50:01 host mtp-probe: checking bus 2, device 9: "/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.0/usb2/2-2"
May 25 21:50:01 host mtp-probe: bus: 2, device: 9 was not an MTP device

Scanning through udev rules I found the device in /lib/udev/rules.d/40-libifd-cyberjack6.rules:

ATTR{idVendor}=="0c4b", ATTR{idProduct}=="0400", MODE="660", GROUP="pcscd"

Looks good to me, so I'm a bit lost for now.
Maybe this is a udev problem, not pcscd's ?

My setup information:
Description: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
Release: 12.04

pcscd:
  Installiert: 1.7.4-2ubuntu2
  Kandidat: 1.7.4-2ubuntu2
  Versionstabelle:
 *** 1.7.4-2ubuntu2 0
        500 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/universe i386 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

Please let me know if and how I can be of any help to solve this.

Thanks for your hard work, I love working with Ubuntu every day, as it fits my needs.

One more note: I googled a bit and found Reiner SCT's support forum where someone mentioned a package libpcsc-ctapi-wrapper0 which can be found at https://launchpad.net/~linrunner/+archive/ppa/+sourcepub/1727348/+listing-archive-extra
Installation of that packages lead the author to a working setup. No success here :-(
