I'm having the exact same issue... well, not exact, its happening on Windows 7 machines. You can log in fine using a PIV card with both a usb card reader and a card reader enabled keyboard, but the service does not start, just as above.

Hi, Please refer to Smart Card Removal Policy Service and note that The action that is performed when the smart card is removed is controlled by using Group Policy. And refer to Smart Card Group Policy and Registry Settings and note the policy Interactive logon: Smart card removal behavior. If we set any other behavior instead of No Action, Smart Card Removal Policy Service can be started. Hope this helps. If a post solved your problem, click Mark as Answer on the post.
