There is, in another class (and as I wrote, the collection sort of works 
because I see the output of the 'notify{"knownhosts class: $fqdn $hostname 
$ipaddress ":}' above):

 class ssh::hostkeys {
    @@sshkey { "${fqdn}_rsa":
        host_aliases => [ "$fqdn", "$hostname", "$ipaddress" ],
        type         => rsa,
        key          => $sshrsakey,
    }
}
