Do try the drill plus support block, but first try rounding them by hand with a rasp, file, or a bench chisel. Using the router like that, especially with such short pieces, seems like a recipe for disaster.

Ooh, if you have a router and round-over bit, you could make a jig making a modified router base-plate out of 1.5" thick stock. The idea would be to create a recess for the round-over bit to set in approximately halfway into the stock. Then have an “1/2” hole offset from the radius of the bit to all you to insert the dowel and rotate. With the jig attached to the router and a hole with a tight enough tolerance you may not get too much chatter when feeding the stock into the jig.
