I assume that I get that right; you can ssh to your machine using the ip, and it doesn't work with using the hostname instead.

I also assume that the command
host $your_host
returns the same IP you manually ssh to to make it work.

Otherwise, plz check your /etc/hosts on the machine you use as ssh-client and also check the dns server configuration if you're using one.
