How did you securely configure to get around the fact OSSEC permissions 
don't allow access to that file?

I believe the reason this isn't working for me is because the file is not 
accessible (logstash shows no errors running, aggravating).

I temporarily modified logstash to allow login and tried this:

]# su - logstash
-bash-4.1$ pwd
/opt/logstash
-bash-4.1$ stat /var/ossec/logs/alerts/alerts.log
stat: cannot stat `/var/ossec/logs/alerts/alerts.log': Permission denied
