Alright, I have a little better understanding of my problem. It seems that with out turning on persistence, each connection from the same source IP and different source port gets sent to a different real server. Until the UDP connection times out, this works perfectly for me. Problem being that with out persistence, the session doesn't stay as long as traffic is seen. Even if there is traffic, the session will time out and then the server could change. As soon as I turn on persistence to keep the session alive with traffic, it starts grouping all ports from a single host together.
Is there any set of options which will reset the timeout for the UDP connection, while not grouping different source ports into a single session? I have currently placed a BSD box with PF running in front of my lvs server. With PF I can source nat traffic to multiple different source IP's, including traffic which comes from the same source IP with different source ports. Doing this before hitting lvs allows me to use persistence again, as I have now created individual source IP's for each connection. It would just be much cleaner with out an additional firewall doing translation first.
