This is not a bug, but rather by design. Refer to the second warning
note in the below document:

#customizing-instance-numa-placement-policies
You will need to define a two-node NUMA topology for the guest if you
wish to balance guests across host nodes.

Title:
NUMA node scheduling problem
Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
Invalid
Bug description:
Description
===========
Instances without pci passthrough requests can overfill host NUMA
nodes with dedicated for pci passthrough PCI devices. Instances placed
on such NUMA nodes despite that there are plenty free resources in
other host NUMA nodes. Such scheduling can lead to situation that
further deployment of an instance with pci passthrough request will
fail because of unavailable capacity in required NUMA node.
Steps to reproduce
==================
Test host with 2 NUMA nodes and PCI device attached to NUMA node 0.
Create a flavor with hw:cpu_policy=dedicated
Spawn several instances without pci passthrough with overall memory
allocation equal memory capacity for NUMA node 0.
Then deploy instance with sr-iov port. Scheduling fails with following
error:
