Strange ping issue in IPv6

Hi Group,

I have a weird ping issue in IPv6 which I just don't understand. Please see
below:

R3#sh ipv int br
FastEthernet0/0 [up/up]
    FE80::212:1FF:FEF6:C00
    FEC0:CC1E:1:38:212:1FF:FEF6:C00
Serial0/0 [up/up]
    FE80::212:1FF:FEF6:C00
    FEC0:CC1E:1:35::3

R3 learns the following two RIP routes:

R3#sh ipv ro FEC0:CC1E:1:4:217:FFF:FE50:1D61
R FEC0:CC1E:1:4::/64 [120/3]
     via FE80::21B:54FF:FEBC:5ECC, Serial0/0

R3#sh ipv ro 2001:192:10:1:217:FFF:FE50:1D60
R 2001:192:10:1::/64 [120/3]
     via FE80::21B:54FF:FEBC:5ECC, Serial0/0

R3#pi FEC0:CC1E:1:4:217:FFF:FE50:1D61 so f0/0

Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to FEC0:CC1E:1:4:217:FFF:FE50:1D61, timeout
is 2 seconds:
Packet sent with a source address of FEC0:CC1E:1:38:212:1FF:FEF6:C00
!!!!!
Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 36/44/52 ms

R3#pi 2001:192:10:1:217:FFF:FE50:1D60 so f0/0

Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 2001:192:10:1:217:FFF:FE50:1D60, timeout
is 2 seconds:
Packet sent with a source address of FEC0:CC1E:1:35::3
!!!!!
Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 32/39/48 ms

R3 pings to the first destination IPv6 address (i.e.
FEC0:CC1E:1:4:217:FFF:FE50:1D61) sourcing from its fa0/0 interface seems
correct.

However when R3 pings the second destination IPv6 address (i.e.
2001:192:10:1:217:FFF:FE50:1D60) sourcing from its fa0/0 interface, it
appears that it uses its interface serial0/0 IPv6 address (i.e.
FEC0:CC1E:1:35::3) instead of FEC0:CC1E:1:38:212:1FF:FEF6:C00.

I have tried the extended ping ipv6 but result is the same. Can anyone
explain why?

Thank you.

BR,
Emil
