Resolution

The root cause of this issue was a mis-configuration of the Load Balancing between the Policy Servers.
Load Balancing was setup for the Policy Servers in the Audit.xml file. This is a mis-configuration. Load Balancing must be setup in the RA.XMl File(s).

This issue can be resolved by the following:

Removed the Load Balancing configuration from the audit.xml.
Enabled Failover in the RA.xml.
