Do you have any semanage login mapping for sftpuser or is it just using
the __default__ entry? (what does semanage login -l show)  How was
sftpuser created?

You could add the debug option on the pam_selinux.so line to try to get
more information.

You could run selinuxdefcon to query what context would be used for
that user, e.g.
selinuxdefcon sftpuser system_u:system_r:sshd_t:s0-s0.c0123
