Well It looks like I've answered my own question with some trial and error, I 
replaced the nss stuff that I had in ldap.conf with this:

ldap_group_search_base = 
ou=Groups,dc=some,dc=company,dc=com?sub?(|(host=\2A)(host=somehost.test.com)(host=test))

The syntax is a little different, but it works great. For anyone who is 
researching this, essentially this is what I am doing:

I am setting my group search base to a specific OU, and then all of my groups 
have host attributes set, we use centralized Config management so each server 
has its own template version of sssd.conf pushed out, in which the host values 
above are populated. When groups are setup, it's either by *(All), hostname or 
host group. When sssd reaches out to LDAP to get group info, it only gets group 
info that applies to the host it is running on, we don't want other groups 
being assigned rights to certain files or directories and this keeps it from 
happening. I just felt I should explain that because I see a lot of forums out 
there where the OP doesn't take the time to explain.

Thanks,
DB
