The best solution is to remove the default Controller. You're running into this issue, because you're specifying both the default page and the default route without any parameters.

By just removing the controller = "Home" on the route defaults, the / won't match the route anymore and because no other route will satisfy, IIS will look into the default documents.

public static void RegisterRoutes(RouteCollection routes)
{
    routes.IgnoreRoute("{resource}.axd/{*pathInfo}");
    routes.MapRoute(
        "Default",                                              // Route name
        "{controller}/{action}/{id}",                           // URL with parameters
        new { action = "Index", id = "" }                       // Parameter defaults
    );
}
