You might want to check the basics first.
If you cd into your <dogtag instance directory>/alias
and perform
modutil -dbdir . -list
What do you see?
If you don't see the module, that means your HSM has not been loaded
correctly. If loaded correctly you should see info on the library name,
slots and status: loaded.
The library doesn't have to be in a specific location, but when you use
modutil to add you need to specify the libfile so it knows where to go.
Normally it is at /usr/lunasa/lib/ though.
I'll let someone who has knowledge about the pkispawn issue to answer
the rest of the question. Until then, you can try the above just to see
if your hsm has been loaded correctly.

see the SafeNet library (does it have to be in a specific directory?)
and pkispawn throws an error "pkispawn : ERROR ....... KeyError:
'pki_uid'!" I noticed this was reported in ticket #905.

Adding the PKCS #11 module to secmod.db should happen after the
pkicreate and just before running the silent install or the web based
configuration wizard.
In Dogtag 10, when using pkispawn, you can split the install and
config steps in two using the flags pki_skip_configuration and
pki_skip_installation.
