RE: [Pound Mailing List] setting up pound listeners for dual stack IPv4 and IPv6`

If you specify multiple backend blocks, pound will load balance between them.  Haproxy shouldn't be necessary unless it has some feature that Pound doesn’t.  I wouldn't know what that is.

But yes, as far as I can tell you have things set up correctly as far as pound is concerned.
