You are over-complicating things. If unconfigured, named binds the outgoing UDP to 0.0.0.0 (::0), which means the chosen IP address is picked by the kernel. You need to configure priorities on your interfaces in the kernel - ip route is your friend.
And for goddess’ sake, don’t do anything wild like proposed round robin across default routes. That would be a living hell to debug.
