A few pointers:
try to see if the jsch example
http://www.jcraft.com/jsch/examples/UserAuthPubKey.java
works for you with this key (on a linux machine of course).
If it does, then this is an android problem - Maybe you should add the
bouncycastle library to your project -- see my application:
https://code.google.com/p/ssh-persistent-tunnel/source/browse/src/org/ayal/SPT/Main.java#91
and the README
https://code.google.com/p/ssh-persistent-tunnel/source/browse/README.build
If it doesn't work on linux, then this is key problem ....
