For what it’s worth, I have since then [replaced my YubiKey](https://anarc.at/blog/2023-08-09-openpgp-key-transition/) and the problem doesn’t seem to occur anymore.

To anyone else having such issues, make sure you can’t reproduce the problem on another computer first! I haven’t actually tried _that_, but it does look like the newer YubiKey doesn’t suffer from those issues…
