Actual failed logins would be a USER_LOGIN event. You should be able to run 

aureport --start today  --login --failed

to see them. Note that auditd is about like syslog in that it does not 
generate events, it records them. You may need to add --enable-audit when 
building a number of packages to get the right support in place.
