With the K5 it was an overly colour sensitive AF sensor that was only
accurate in one type of light and neutral coloured subjects. The AF on
my K5 was bad enough that I pretty much stopped using AF lenses in the
studio since I couldn't depend on the AF to be accurate. It would lock,
but it would lock somewhere in space either in front of or behind the
subject.
I suspect in Larry's case, it was just too dim to AF.

I was asked to photograph at a Milonga (tango social dance) last

reddish (warm, aka low color temperature) light. It wouldn't lock
focus for anything.
Wasn't this a widely discussed problem with the K-5?
