Salzburg is considered to be a German station for trains coming from Germany and an Austrian station for trains coming from Austria. You have a similar situation in Kufstein.
The machines want to accept your CC but you need to be very nice with these machines. It takes some practice to make them sell you a ticket.
Exactly: you need to insert the card, leave it in there for a bit, and then remove it, but not too fast and not too slow
or something similar...
