Description

When trying to send botcoin with a Digital BitBox following error appears. It worked in April. Tried again with versions 3.3.0 - 3.3.6. As far as I know no firmware updates during that time for the hardware. It also never asks for holding the touch button, even after warning about it in the error message. Normally you have to always hold the touch button to sign a transaction and it did back in April.

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by reproducing a transaction with a Digital BitBox on the reported Electrum versions, then trace the BitBox transaction-signing flow and compare its PIN and touch-button behavior with the expected April behavior. Done means signing requests the correct PIN and touch-button confirmation.
