I think I figured out my problem.
I wasn't following all the forked processes in my strace correctly.
Using the -ff option I now see the file being opened with the O_DIRECT flag as I expected.

Does your strace output show any fcntl() calls? I believe it's
possible (maybe even necessary?) to set attributes like O_DIRECT
and O_ASYNC using fcntl() as well as during the original open().
