I've experience something like this before. It happened when I got a nail in one of the rear tires (maybe a year old). I tried changing just the rear pair and the car was...squirrely. It was really unsettled in turnins (like on a curve on the highway) and the car just felt unstable.
I noticed that the tire place had put one of the tires on backwards (wrong direction). Had them fix it, but the problem persisted.
Got an alignment (like you) - problem persisted.
Finally I replaced the fronts with new tires as well. Problem went away.
Not sure why, but these cars seem to despise having different aged tires in the front and back. I'm thinking rubber hardening/stickiness is the cause, but perhaps something to keep in mind?
