It does not choose a random setting. The setting is defaulted to
"ask", if it is not listed in the config files. Bear in mind, that
also the user spesific configuration file (~/.ssh2/ssh2_config) can
change this setting. Also, the setting can be changed according to
hostname pattern specified.

Did you add the keys to the "identification" file? And did you add the
keys to the "authorization" file in the remote server? I think the FAQ
that comes with the distribution should cover this question.
