Did you setup for example a public key login, or are you using password
logins?

If using public key login, it should work.  If using password logins, it
may still be running ssh_askpass or similar.  Also, if you login account
has any X11 applications in startup files (.login, .profile, .bashrc,
.xsession, etc) then it could cause this problem also.
