This priority number does not look correct, this should be -100 which
is NF_IP_PRI_NAT_DST (in recent nftables versions you can use:

Why do you need DNAT in this case? In the IPVS DR mode virtual server
and the load balancer already own the same IP address.

Your configuration is also missing the input/output nat hooks, which
also need to be registered manually. Otherwise, NAT and locally
generated traffic might break.
In the kernel 4.14 and below, all of the NAT hooks in nftables need to
be manually registered in order for NAT to work.

This is called from local_out path for NAT, is the $vip owned by your
load balancer? Then the route lookup is correct since it points to the
address that your load balancer owns.

Is your load balancer owning the IP address that you use to dnat?
