Actually you can use "default_domain_suffix" in the [sssd] section. But
then you need to fully-qualify the users from the IPA domain.

 default_domain_suffix (string)
  This string will be used as a default domain name for all names without a
  domain name component. The main use case is environments where the primary
  domain is intended for managing host policies and all users are located in a
  trusted domain. The option allows those users to log in just with their user
  name without giving a domain name as well.

  Please note that if this option is set all users from the primary domain have
  to use their fully qualified name, e.g. user at domain.name, to log in.

  Default: not set
