Have you checked /etc/ssh/sshd_config for the PermitRootLogin setting?
From the man page sshd_config(5):
PermitRootLogin
Specifies whether root can log in using ssh(1). The argument must
be yes, prohibit-password, forced-commands-only,
or no. The default is yes.
If this option is set to prohibit-password (or its deprecated
alias, without-password), password and keyboard-in-
teractive authentication are disabled for root.
My bet is it is set to "prohibit-password".
