RHEL7 audispd syslog journal question

Does anyone have any ideas how to prevent the journal from filling up with events that come from audispd?

There is a double penalty due to this and it really slows down my system with a lot of rules in place.

I have audispd syslog plugin enabled to send remotely as LOG_LOCAL5.
Auditd is also writing output to /var/log/audit/audit.log.

If you do journalctl -u auditd you also see copies of the syslog events.  Is there any way to prevent this behavior?
I did find this RedHat page but it doesn't really sound like a good solution, having to modify selinux policy.

Thanks,
