Could we get whole AVC denial report which you get from setroubleshooter, please? Without that there is not much we could do about this.

Thank you very much

OK, probably the easiest way is to attach us /var/log/audit/audit.log as an attachment to this bug, please. You could make it a private attachment.

Thank you.
