Bret, Saw your reply to the OP about checking directory permissions. Thought I would add that invalid directory permissions has bit me more than once when trying to get ssh passphrase authentication working properly. Even the users home directory must NOT have group (or world) writable permissions. i.e. Typing: chmod g+w ... on anyone of the dir/files below will cause ssh to ignore passphrase authentication and default to password authentication. Note: I use ssh-agent/ssh-add on this system, so I included the permissions on my pub/priv DSA keys.
