Description of problem:

I get the issue below every time I wake up from suspend on a Openbox session.

It seems to be harmless, so I have not (yet) done a local policy as suggested in the SE alert.

I have been running F13 for a while without a similar issue. Today I installed F14 on a blank new partition, so this appears to be a F14 issue.

==========================================================

SELinux is preventing /sbin/consoletype from read access on the file /var/log/pm-suspend.log.

*****  Plugin restorecon (99.5 confidence) suggests  *************************

If you want to fix the label. 
/var/log/pm-suspend.log default label should be hald_log_t.
Then you can run restorecon.
Do
# /sbin/restorecon -v /var/log/pm-suspend.log

*****  Plugin catchall (1.49 confidence) suggests  ***************************

If you believe that consoletype should be allowed read access on the pm-suspend.log file by default.
Then you should report this as a bug.
You can generate a local policy module to allow this access.
Do
allow this access for now by executing:
# grep consoletype /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp
