Hallo Robert,

I don't really think that this might be your problem, but before opening a cisco case you should try
the command "logging source-interface" and set this to the Management-Interface of the Router or
an appropriate IP that ist routed, reachable from the syslog-ng and not blocked by any ACL/FW.
Please also check the "ip default-gateway" entry of the router.
