Is it not working for you today?

I have a Nitrokey Pro that I purchased at least a couple years back that
I use every day on a Guix system, including to sign this email.  Here's
my dmesg output:

Maybe there's trouble with newer versions or different types of keys,
though.

With regards to udev rules---I haven't done so myself, but see
`udev-rule' in the Guix manual under `Base Services'.
