"StrictHostKeyChecking ask" asks when connecting to a new host (for
which there's no entry in known_hosts). If there's an entry for the host
in known_hosts and the host's key doesn't match the one saved in
known_hosts, it will deny the connection:

> If this flag is set to ask (the default), new host keys will be added […] and
> ssh will refuse to connect to hosts whose host key has changed.
(from man ssh_config(5))

So, for you, it seems to work as documented.
