Okay, so to fix this we need to do two things...

We need the following in ~/.profile
  test $SSH_AUTH_SOCK && ln -sf "$SSH_AUTH_SOCK" "/tmp/ssh-agent-$USER-screen"

And we need the following in the byobu/screen configuration:
  setenv SSH_AUTH_SOCK "/tmp/ssh-agent-$USER-screen"

This is something I'm going to want to get a second opinion on, from someone on the security team before committing. At the very least, we can document this in Launchpad Answers if we can't solve it in byobu.
