Timed out waiting for YubiKey to set status

[fossxplorer]

After programming slot 2 with the GUI, i'm trying to run yubi_goog.py which times out:
python ./yubi_goog.py yubi
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./yubi_goog.py", line 243, in
main()
File "./yubi_goog.py", line 227, in main
ytg_yubi(args['slot'], args['digits'])
File "./yubi_goog.py", line 124, in ytg_yubi
token = _gen_token(yubi_slot, digits)
File "./yubi_goog.py", line 105, in _gen_token
response = yk.challenge_response(secret, slot=yubi_slot)
File "/home/susinths/usit/virtualenvs/ansibletest/lib/python2.7/site-packages/yubico/yubikey_usb_hid.py", line 461, in challenge_response

raise yubikey_base.YubiKeyTimeout(reason)
yubico.yubikey_base.YubiKeyTimeout: <YubiKeyTimeout instance at 0x7f8a99998140: Timed out waiting for YubiKey to set status 0x40>

Any hint to solve the issue is highly appreciated!

EDIT1: using Yubikey II.
It works fine with https://github.com/Ramblurr/yubi-goog, but not with this version in this repo.

You have programmed slot 2 and seem to have executed

python ./yubi_goog.py yubi

That should read from slot 1 by default, can you try:

python ./yubi_goog.py yubi --slot 2

to actually use slot 2. Please let me know if you experience any more issues, also see: https://github.com/greenhost/yubi-goog#other-options
