In case anyone reads this, we finally resolved this issue on our latest 2.9.1 upgrade by restoring the password field properties to how they look in a standard Moodle mdl_user table: 

Type: varchar(255)

Null : No

Defaut value: <empty>

Most likely, the last two settings were to blame - for some reasons ours had been Null = Yes and Default value = Null.

I think I stand corrected on what I wrote earlier. More likely, these two steps were critical:

  1. Setting the type as varchar(255) for the password field in the mdl_user table
  2. Making sure to Purge all caches from the admin interface.
