I guess I'd say it's not "unexpected". Since the setting is in HKCU and sshd is started under SYSTEM to work as a service, this value will be initialized to the default for SYSTEM, which isn't the same as the user you set it for in the registry. You can probably work around this by checking the archives and finding the references describing how to start a shell window as user SYSTEM. From that, you could use something like regtool to make the setting there. I haven't tried this but it looks like it should work.
