In the first place, your definition is a bit screwey in that it cannot be instantiated more than once (you would get a duplicate resource error on File['sshd_config']). A definition creates a resource *type* but you're using it as if it created a single resource. And that leads directly to the crux of your problem: at the point where your service resource is parsed, no instance of the definition can yet have been created, and therefore File['sshd_config'] cannot yet have been declared. The service cannot declare a dependency on an undeclared resource. Since you would prefer to put the definition in its own file anyway, I recommend you do so. Then, add "include 'ssh'" at the beginning of its body and re-enable the 'notify' parameter in the file resource. Remove the 'subscribe' from the service resource, but add "require => Package['ssh']". Then you should be good to go.
