You could test that by using the IP address

This seems the most likely to me - if $HOME isn't set in the script's
environment, for example. You could explicitly tell ssh where to find
the required key, with the -i option - eg:

/usr/bin/ssh -i /root/.ssh/id_rsa root@nasbox poweroff

You could do your testing by sshing to a different box (even localhost)
and/or running a different command?

eg "ssh root@localhost whoami > /root/test.out" ... and have a look at
the file afterwards
