You are aware of the size limit on UDP replies to DNS queries?

Can you repeat the experiments but with a packet capture active? I think
that if you look into the issue with said limitation you will see that
the response is to big and you are summoned to go from UDP to TCP to
perform the query.

With the packet capture you should be able to tell if this is a client
or server or network problem. There is no substitute for cutting down a
problem by establishing which side is not sticking to the standards by
measuring halfway.
