It seems to me that you're using the rules in per-server context (leading slash), is that correct?

        So it seems to me some part of Apache is checking to see if the path 
exists before applying the rule,

Only in directory context, but that might change the behavior only under certain circumstances (hint: r->filename, path-info; enabled MultiViews).

        Anyone have any suggestions?

What can you find in your rewrite log (use RewriteLoglevel 5)?
