Unable to receive custom audit topics in syslog

After carefully following the guide to implement custom audit topics for Forgerock Identity Gateway (Extend IG :: ForgeRock Identity Gateway), using a JsonAuditEventHandler it does seem to work as intended.

However, the same configuration with no changes does not seem to work for a SyslogAuditEventHandler.

{
  "name": "SyslogAuditService",
  "type": "AuditService",
  "config": {
    "eventHandlers": [
      {
        "class": "org.forgerock.audit.handlers.syslog.SyslogAuditEventHandler",
        "config": {
          "name": "MySyslogAuditEventHandler",
          "topics": [
            "access",
            "OAuth2AccessTopic"
          ],
          "protocol": "UDP",
          "host": "localhost",
          "port": "3333",
          "connectTimeout": 30000,
          "facility": "LOCAL0",
          "severityFieldMappings": [
            {
              "topic": "access",
              "field": "response/status",
              "valueMappings": {
                "FAILED": "INFORMATIONAL",
                "SUCCESSFUL": "INFORMATIONAL"
              }
            }
          ]
        }
      }
    ]
  }
}

The received message contains the custom topic but does not keep any data inside.

Is there any additional configuration that is required for this specific handler for the example to work?
