Details:

I registered an additional ssh key via the web interface, but authentication
was refused for that key.

Then I went to the web interface and re-ordered the keys so that the new one
is the first one.

Then authentication worked.

This shows it is not an issue with the key itself. The server simply does not
offer to authenticate with the second key in the authorized list.

Shouldn't these keys just be dumped into the ~/.ssh/authorized-keys file on
the server and both work?
