Who owns /var/run/clamav ?

Let's assume it is owned by clamav

If so, you would want:
LocalSocket /var/run/clamav/clamd
User clamav
AllowSupplementaryGroups yes

and you would want to add the clamav user to the same group the
amavisd-new user belongs to (typically amavis or vscan).

You need to actually send a virus through (like eicar) while debugging
to get the real picture of why clamd failed.
