Yeah, it was a long shot ... I am not sure what to suggest from this
point on except take things piece by piece. You are saying that packets
are going out, on lagg0 I assume, but nothing is coming back. I would
check the receiving end of those packets or your configuration for the
interface and make sure that works without the NAT etc. before looking
further into the NAT. I mean if traffic is going out and is being
received then traffic should be coming back check that end and make
sure it is taking the right route and the other end is seeing your data
stream and responding before digging into NAT as it sounds that the
problem maybe else where. It is always best to break things down to
their simplest form and then start building up if it even works there.

HTH,
