If SSH authentication does be performed via PAM (so called keyboard-interactive
authentication), you do have that behaviour. But, IIRC, you perform
authentication with SSH public key, which completely bypasses PAM infrastructure
at the authentication stage regardless of 'UsePAM yes' setting, thus the result
you observe. PAM has nothing to do with that. Please carefully read sshd_config
manual.
