This is largly the same bug as the NFC one. If the power is removed from the authenticator it will generate a new ECDH keypair for the pin protocol. iOS is continuing to use the key retrieved before the power cycle for ECDH-ES and the pin protocol fails when the pin is sent to the authenticator. You ask why is this a problem? Just don't remove the key. The problem is that many Fido keys support other protocols and appear to iOS as external keyboards. For those keys, perhaps in the millions when they are used with a iPAD once they are inserted the on screen keyboard disappears. If the user has a BLE or other keyboard they are fine, otherwise they remove the authenticator to type the pin and then reinsert to submit it, but it won't work because the key has changed. I don't know if there is any option to ignore the external keyboard and bring up the on screen one. The simplest thing is to make sure the fix that I think you are doing for NFC is also applied to USB.
