I have started trying to use my new Ledger wallet with Hive app. I have installed latest, developer mode, have Hive app open with Ledger unlocked. Using https://hiveledger.io/auth/login, it identifies my Ledger, but says
authentication failed
Error: check if Ledger is unlocked and the Hive app is open
The Ledger was unlocked and Hive app open. The app seems to close however when it attempts to log in.
Edit: Never mind, I figured out that it was because Ledger Live was attempting to connect at the same time.
Glad you figured it out! I might modify the error message to include information about Ledger Live.
