If in /var/lib/pki-ca/profiles/ca/caUserCert.cfg
has
policyset.userCertSet.8.default.params.subjAltExtPattern_0=$request.requestor_email$
policyset.userCertSet.8.default.params.subjAltExtGNEnable_0=true
and the enrollment request has an e-mail, the subject alt name extension 
field should be correctly initialized upon certificate issuance.
You may want to turn on some debug in CS.cfg
debug.enabled=true
debug.level=0
and see your debug log for more details.
