  That's not at all clear.  For one, we don't need to see the whole config.  99% of it is just taken from the defaults, which we've already seen.

  For a load balancer, you need:

client -> load balancer -> home server 1
                                    -> home server 2

* client has to have "load balancer" listed as the RADIUS server (IP, secret)
* load balancer has to have "client" listed in clients.conf (for each client)
* load balancer needs to have "home server 1" and "2" listed as home_server in proxy.conf
* "home server 1 / 2" need to have "load balancer" listed in clients.conf

  Go through each bit step by step, and it will work.

  The client is unknown.  That's simple enough.

  I'm not sure what that means...

  The debug log shows that the home server isn't responding to the load balancer.  Likely because you didn't add the load balancer as a client in the home server configuration.
