I haven't looked at this in detail, so please forgive me if my answer
is utter nonsense: Have you considered that this denial might be caused
by UBAC (that's the fancy name for the restrictions refpolicy places
upon interactions between different selinux users, staff_u and root in
this case)?
Anyway, personally I've never tried making su work with SELinux.
"sudo -r sysadm_r -t sysadm_t" works like a charm.
Regards,
