In your user-data file, do you have the early and late commands:
#cloud config
autoinstall:
  version: 1
  early-commands:
    - sudo systemctl stop ssh


At the bottom:

late--commands:
- sudo systemctl start ssh


Also is the password encrypted?  I use  $mkpasswd --method=SHA-512 
--rounds=4096

These are things I had to do in order to make the ssh connection.
