IMO, no team that won an automatic bid should have to play their way in.
My only counter to that is that you're punishing teams for playing in better conferences just because they can't beat a Kentucky or a Gonzaga. Which seems kind of shitty.

I think there are plenty of at large bids to go around, and those pretty much all go to major conferences. I don't think a team that finishes 6th in its conference has much room to complain if they don't get in.

A lot of these play in at-large teams have 10 or more losses if they are from a major conference, they are being rewarded for playing in a tough conference just by having the opportunity to still get in.
It isn't unfair at all, if anything the play-in games should be the last eight at-large teams. I agree with making them all play in for the 11 seed.
