That seems very much like an issue with your shell/ssh, in which case
psql is just an innocent victim. If the shell is filtering away some
keys or something like that, there's nothing psql can do.

FWIW I'm using psql over ssh pretty much every day, and I can't recall
any such issues.

Are the keys working in shell after you connect through ssh? Try
disabling various profile tweaks and see if that helps.
