It is likely a permission issue but it is possible other parts of the kernel are interacting with apparmor

what is your kernel version?


As root can you enable debug mode,

  echo 0> /sys/module/apparmor/parameters/debug

this will give some logging output with extra info for so special cases.

and can youturn off audit silencing

  echo -n "noquiet" /sys/module/apparmor/parameters/audit

this turns off deny rules silencing of denials.


You can toggle these values live and do it one at a time if you like.
