I think 華道 is a bit broader but they are often interchanged.

Are you sure? Japanese wikipedia treats them as synonyms: 華道(かどう)は、植物のみの場合のほか、植物を主にその他様々な材料を組み合わせて構成し、鑑賞する芸術である。「花道」とも表記し、またいけばな(生け花、活花、挿花)とも呼ばれる

All Japanese dictionaries seem to treat them as synonyms.

Ikebana is an example of 華道, but they are not synonyms.
