That sounds like something else is the problem, possibly a plugin. Some
plugins are badly written and don't use the functions to get the correct
directory but assume a directory layout.

I run an AppArmor profile over WordPress which doesn't allow it to write to
anything under /usr. I'm not getting any hits on that so it's not even
trying.

The trick now is to work out why it's fine here, but not elsewhere. When
you say preview, what exactly is that?  Is it all the small images you see
in the media library? Are the images uploaded into the /var directory but
just not visible? That would point to an apache configuration problem.
