A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
When calling KeyStore.load() with SunMSCAPI crypto provider (instantiated by getting a keystore with name "Windows-MY"), Java shows an unnecessary error window, if you use a Win CryptAPI-compatible smartcard.

Sorry, I use a localized version of Java, so the strings reported here are just approximate.

The window is titled "Insert a smartcard". It has 3 buttons (OK (disabled), Cancel (enabled), Details (enabled)).

When clicking on details, a more elaborate view is presented. There is a SC reader icon with a "stop sign" drawn over it signaling some error. Next to this icon, the smartcard name is written (correctly), and beneath it there is a paragraph saying: "A smartcard has been detected. But another one is required for the requested operation. There is probably no driver for the smartcard used, or the required certificate hasn't been found".

If I cancel this window, the load operation proceeds and finishes successfully (despite what would the error window suggest).

Applications affected by this bug:
* Libreoffice (in document signing)
* JSignPDF ( https://github.com/kwart/jsignpdf )

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
KeyStore ks = KeyStore.getInstance("Windows-MY");
ks.load(null, null);
System.out.println(Collections.list(ks.aliases()).toString());


REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.
