[SalesForce] SFDX ERROR: You do not have access to the [ScratchOrgInfo] object

I'm a SFDX/GitHub newbie, following the instructions on Migrating an existing project from a production org to DX/Git repo. Everything is going well until I try to spin up the scratch org…

pmcclellan$ sfdx force:org:create -s -f config/project-scratch-def.json -a myscratchorg

and then I get the error:

ERROR:  You do not have access to the [ScratchOrgInfo] object.

I have searched this error here and elsewhere, and the consensus solution is that either the devhub isn't authorized, or the user doesn't have appropriate permissions on the devhub org. I have triple-checked both those conditions:

I have assigned the Manage Environment Hub permission set to myself, and I have re-authorized the dev hub with the CLI (subsequent to setting the permission set):

pmcclellan$ sfdx force:auth:web:login -d -a myhuborg

I have verified that the org is authorized with…

sfdx force:org:list

… and the org shows up with the correct alias, username, org Id and shows Connected.

I have verified that project-scratch-def.json exists in the /config/ directory:

{
    "orgName": "pmcclellan Company",
    "edition": "Developer",
    "orgPreferences" : {
        "enabled": ["S1DesktopEnabled"]
    }
}

I'm out of things I can think of to try. Any tips?

Unfortunately the discussion on this question is no longer accessible, so I hope I am not treading ground that's already been reviewed.

Reviewing the permissions in a fresh SFDX Dev Hub trial organization may be helpful. Those orgs come with a single permission set ("Salesforce DX") that does nothing save to provide the following object access:

Active Scratch Orgs: Read, Edit, Delete
Namespace Registries: Read, Create, Edit, Delete
Scratch Org Infos: Read, Create, Edit, Delete

These are just object permission settings, not system-level permissions. (The Manage Environment Hub permission is not available in these trial orgs).

Does your permission set provide these object permissions?
