I'd recommend adding some logging to the rule to see what conditions are when the decision points are reached.
I suspect that the wildcard pool members are not reflecting an "up" status.
For that to happen, you'd need to be monitoring the gateway pool members on port 0 with a custom monitor that checks at least to the node on a specific port, or better yet transparent through the pool member to a remote service to validate its ability to act as a gateway.
If you just want to check the gateway address only with an icmp monitor against the local address, you could consider using "LB::status node " instead of checking the status of the pool member on a specific port. (For more on the LB::status command, Click here)
