Well, the solution ended up just setting up the rule for the subnet, not the host... route add aaa.bbb.ccc.200/29 aaa.bbb.ccc.200 -interface
Had to move some IP addresses, but at least the traffic is going to the right ethernet controller now.

And if that doesn't work, can I please see 'netstat -rn'? You can obfuscate the IPs if you wish.
