Running under strace may change the execution environment enough that it's not reflective of the actual error, but it's still worth a shot -- can you pastebin the whole auditd strace logs? That openat() line is actually a success -- the error we're looking for will come from the audit_set_pid(3) function, which uses netlink, which is an incredibly complicated protocol. The error may not look like an error in strace output.
Is there any chance the kernel has logged whatever the failure was in dmesg output?
