The simplest solution is to change your autocommand to use

    set filetype=sphinx

instead of

    setfiletype sphinx

so that the result would be

    au! BufRead,BufNewFile sphinx.* set filetype=sphinx

It would also work to move your current autocommand towards the top
of your .vimrc, ahead of your "filetype plugin indent on" command.

Both of these solutions worked for me, using vim-7.2.148.

A more correct solution would be to follow the instructions here:

    :help new-filetype
