You probably don't have any sudo entries so NRPE can't run sudo without being prompted for password. My guess is that the prompt don't send any EOF, check_nrpe can therefore not parse it as a valid output. Personally, I run NRPE using xinetd so nrpe.cfg is pretty much empty on my side, it only contains command definitions so I wasn't aware of command_prefix's existence.
