I found one of them:

https://dev.gnupg.org/T5931

I didn't test if more recent GnuPG 2.2.x contain a fix for this.  From
the bug log it doesn't look that way.  This happens for all my SSH
connections to modern systems, when I work from Debian-based machines
and have forgotten to update GnuPG to 2.4.x or apply the workaround that
weakens my security.

I don't think gpgsm supports creating Ed25519 certificates using
hardware tokens in GnuPG 2.2.x?  That works in 2.4.x.  I must admit
again I did not re-check the most recent 2.2.x series.
