EATTR only specifies whether a data set is allocated with F8/F9 DSCBs. In order for a data set to be allocated to the cylinder managed space, it must have EATTR = OPT (or EATTR=NS for VSAM as the default is to have F8/F9 DSCBs) and then it must be larger than the defined Break Point Value(BPV) to be allocated to the cylinder managed region. So if the data set is not greater than your BPV it will be allocated to the track managed region. So unless your BPV is less than the size of all the data sets you are trying to get to the cylinder managed region, its working as designed.
Aha! I had forgotten about the BPV!
