What you are seeing is expected behavior. If you have multiple
interfaces selected, it cannot possibly use reply-to because it can't
specify reply-to on rules for multiple interfaces. Interface groups have
the same limitation.

If you need reply-to, the rules must only apply to a single interface.

For that reason, multiple interface rules (groups or floating) are
primarily useful only for internal interfaces.
