If you define any audit rules via auditctl (or put them
into /etc/audit/audit.rules for loading upon startup), then you should
see them again.  There is an optimization in the audit system to disable
collection of audit data like paths if there are no audit rules to avoid
the overhead associated with such collection.  This means you need at
least one audit rule defined to get that information.
