That is most likely because the route changes over time (when the cache is flushed) and the NAT mappings for the connection have been set up on a different interface. The way to properly do this is to add routing rules based on fwmark and use CONNMARK to bind a connection to one of the interfaces after the initial multipath routing decision.
