My snap contains a single executable, which can either be run manually from the command line, or via a snap service. So actually when the snap is first installed, the app service is automatically started.
The executable uses libusb, and during startup it will call libusb_open().
When running manually from the command line, this works as expected.
However when running as a snap service, this function call always fails!
Here is the error from journalctl:

Does this give some indication of what going wrong?
(I’m not sure how to debug this issue)
Is there some permission missing from my snap service definition?
Here is what it currently looks like:

This snap is running on armhf ubuntu18 odroid-xu4.
I’ve tried it on a pi3 ubuntu18 armhf image, and same problem
If I build the same snap for arm64 and run it on a pi3 ubuntu18 arm64 image, it works ok.
