USB Redirection RHEL (Smartcard Reader)

Hi everyone,

I'm attempting to setup USB redirection and everything appears to be functional with the exception of smartcard readers. Once I log into a VDI desktop using the Horizon Client and select the "Connect USB Device" I do not see the card reader device, but I see my other USB devices.

Also, I've noticed that I am able to see the device if I connect it using VMware Workstation OR vSphere using the remote console - I can see the device fine within the VM.

I'm running RHEL 7.9 with Horizonagent for linux 8.0

I ran across this thread from a couple years ago. Is this valid and true? https://communities.vmware.com/t5/Horizon-for-Linux/USB-redirection-RHEL-7-5-and-Agent-7-6/m-p/13956...
