I was able to get things working by downloading Maya 2015. I was resisting this because the projects I have been working on were 2014, but this is unrelated so it's okay. Not sure what the problem is, but I see in one of the Maya 2015 Service Packs, a mayapy interactive prompt issue similar to mine was resolved, so maybe it had been a problem for a while?
