Ledger Nano - integration with Electrum

I have a Ledger Nano HW wallet that I use for testing purposes.

With Electrum 2.0.2, I was very happy to see that Ledger was supported on Linux (once you havedownloaded and installed the necessary libraries from Github: e.g. btchip-python, cython-hidapi and pyusb).

The 2FA system used on Linux does not require the card supplied by the manufacturer, but rather uses an awkward system where a pin code is send to you, if you have a text file in edit mode.

For OSX, Electrum would not give me the option to create a new wallet with the Ledger. However, the option for Trezor is, but not for Ledger (or BTChip). I tried it with the OSX binary version, which is available on Electrum.org website, and by cloning the Electrum Github repo, and using Terminal and python. Neither worked (for Ledger). But, if I use the official Google Chrome-based system at ledgerwallet.com it works.

Any idea what I am doing wrong? Did anyone got their Ledger to work on Electrum OSX?
