you may want to try the following:

1. Add

---
[sssd]
...
ldap_autofs_search_base="dc=example,dc=com""
---

in your sssd.conf

2. Your /etc/sysconfig/autofs appears to be missing some entries. Mine 
contains

---
AUTOFS_OPTIONS=""
LOCAL_OPTIONS=""
APPEND_OPTIONS="no"
USE_MISC_DEVICE="yes"
DEFAULT_MASTER_MAP_NAME="auto.master"
DEFAULT_TIMEOUT=300
DEFAULT_BROWSE_MODE="no"
DEFAULT_LOGGING="none"
DEFAULT_MAP_OBJECT_CLASS="automountMap"
DEFAULT_ENTRY_OBJECT_CLASS="automount"
DEFAULT_MAP_ATTRIBUTE="automountMapName"
DEFAULT_ENTRY_ATTRIBUTE="automountKey"
DEFAULT_VALUE_ATTRIBUTE="automountInformation"
DEFAULT_AUTH_CONF_FILE=""
MAP_HASH_TABLE_SIZE=1024
SEARCH_BASE="cn=[automountlocation_as_defined_in_ipa],cn=automount,dc=example,dc=com"
LDAP_URI="ldap:///dc=example,dc=com"
---

3. I had to put "ldap" instead of "sss" in nsswitch.conf like so:

---
--- nsswitch.conf       2014-07-24 10:30:59.207122633 +0200
+++ nsswitch.conf.orig  2014-07-24 10:30:36.417245012 +0200
@@ -61,7 +61,7 @@

  publickey:  nisplus

-automount: ldap files
+automount: sss files

  aliases:    files nisplus

My client system is openSUSE 13.1
