You needed to restart the audit daemon to get the proper context.
I probably should have left the policy for both.


setroubleshoot loads the rpm python bindings, which tries to read the
.rpmmacros file in $HOME.  So if you do a service setoubleshoot restart
after su or sudo then you can see this avc.  It is supposed to be
dontaudited, but It must be missing the nfs_t one.
