I used to use plink, however, I generally used an out-of-band
method, such as pscp.  Also, I have ssh-agents set up on all the
hosts I use, so I never have to look at password prompts, so I
don't recall any problems with password prompts.

I don't have time atm (8 university exams in the next 2 weeks),
but I might be able to debug this in a few weeks.
