Ah, yes....I think I know what's happening. The iApp configuration has an iRule that only checks for incoming recognized protocols/applications (OWA/EWS/Autodiscover, etc.) and selects proper persistence method and then select the pool. Since /powershell is not a valid protocol extension in the iApp's realm, it's getting dropped. Thinking about this some more, I'd suggest to simply create another two virtuals(or one, if you just do HTTPS) on default powershell ports 5985/5986 and a dedicated pool of CAS servers on those ports. Sorry for the initial confusion, if I caused one. :)
