Can you show your configuration, without editing?

Additionally, check if you have a . SOA in your first database. Once
PowerDNS finds an applicable SOA in a database, it will not study secondary
ones.

We have done some work to make it better. https://repo.powerdns.com has
packages you can use to test.

In general, it will work as long as there is no overlap in zones between the
two backends.
