[bug]: getting FAILURE_REASON_NO_ROUTE when I do have sufficient balance in each channel along the route.

[ZZiigguurraatt]

I have the following network:

         TA         SAT            SAT         SAT
 alice <----> bob <----> charlie <----> dave <----> edward

and I'm getting FAILURE_REASON_NO_ROUTE when I do have sufficient balance in each channel along the route. Here is an example output from my test script:

edward sending sats and alice receiving 35400.0 Asset1_base (354.0 Asset1_friendly) via bob
MaxAllowableFee: 11
public channels edward knows about:
dave(EEE) <---- 1000000 sat ----> charlie(EEE)
dave(EEE) <---- 1000000 sat ----> edward(EEE)

However, this problem happens randomly, I can't seem to get it in a repeatable way.
