/* RFC5014: Source address selection */
#define IPV6_ADDR_PREFERENCES   72

#define IPV6_PREFER_SRC_TMP             0x0001
#define IPV6_PREFER_SRC_PUBLIC          0x0002
#define IPV6_PREFER_SRC_PUBTMP_DEFAULT  0x0100
#define IPV6_PREFER_SRC_COA             0x0004
#define IPV6_PREFER_SRC_HOME            0x0400
#define IPV6_PREFER_SRC_CGA             0x0008
#define IPV6_PREFER_SRC_NONCGA          0x0800

so you need to call
setsockopt(socket, IPPROTO_IPV6, IPV6_ADDR_PREFERENCES, &value, sizeof(value)).

Where value=IPV6_PREFER_SRC_PUBLIC
