[CentOS] weird SELinux denial

I keep seeing this in my audit.logs:

type=AVC msg=audit(1496336600.230:6): avc:  denied  { name_connect } for  pid=2411 comm="dbus-daemon" dest=111 scontext=system_u:system_r:system_dbusd_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:object_r:portmap_port_t:s0 tclass=tcp_socket

	Was caused by:
	The boolean allow_ypbind was set incorrectly.
	Description:
	Allow system to run with NIS

	Allow access by executing:
	# setsebool -P allow_ypbind 1


The weirdness is that when I check allow_ypbind, it’s already on:

 # getsebool allow_ypbind
allow_ypbind --> on
#


Does anyone with more experience with SELinux than me have any idea why this is happening?
