A problem looking up user information points to not having 'sss' listed as a source of information in /etc/nsswitch.conf. If you don't have 'sss' listed on the 'passwd:', 'group:', and 'shadow:' lines in that file, it's probably worth adding it, restarting sshd so that it'll re-read that configuration file, and trying again. This is just my guess going from the error log. If that doesn't solve it, you'll probably get better help on the sssd-devel mailing list on fedorahosted.org (https://fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/sssd-devel).
