Answer 1

Check your keychain for identities that are missing a private key. I had multiple distribution certificates installed for the same team, one of which was missing the private key. Xcode was only checking the first matching identity in the keychain and automatically using this as opposed to the one that did include the private key.

Removing the matching identity that didn't have a private key made Xcode detect the correct identity again.
