Trying to find out why my unbound will not resolve www.startpuntgeldzaken.nl

What I see is this (reliably)

When asking 8.8.8.8 or 9.9.9.9 directly, the name is resolved.

But when unbound forwards to 8.8.8.8 or 9.9.9.9, it fails. 

hermione:~ gerben$ nslookup
> server 8.8.8.8
Default server: 8.8.8.8
Address: 8.8.8.8#53
> www.startpuntgeldzaken.nl
Server:		8.8.8.8
Address:	8.8.8.8#53

Non-authoritative answer:
www.startpuntgeldzaken.nl	canonical name = nibud.truepeople.space.
nibud.truepeople.space	canonical name = tp-nibud-01.truepeople.space.
Name:	tp-nibud-01.truepeople.space
Address: 84.22.99.176
> server 9.9.9.9
Default server: 9.9.9.9
Address: 9.9.9.9#53

Non-authoritative answer:

nibud.truepeople.space	canonical name = tp-nibud-01.truepeople.space.

Default server: 192.168.2.86
Address: 192.168.2.86#53
> www.startpuntgeldzaken.nl
;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached

In other words: I can realiable ask 9.9.9.9 for www.startpuntgeldzaken.nl but I cannot get unbound to get that same info via a forward. See:

$ unbound-control lookup www.startpuntgeldzaken.nl
The following name servers are used for lookup of www.startpuntgeldzaken.nl.
forwarding request:
Delegation with 0 names, of which 0 can be examined to query further addresses.
It provides 2 IP addresses.
9.9.9.9         	rto 103 msec, ttl 299, ping 35 var 17 rtt 103, tA 0, tAAAA 0, tother 0, EDNS 0 probed.

and

$ dig @9.9.9.9 www.startpuntgeldzaken.nl; dig @192.168.2.86 www.startpuntgeldzaken.nl

It is that reliable difference between asking 9.9.9.9 (or 8.8.8.8, or 1.1.1.1) directly and doing the same via unbound that forwards that bothersd me. Direct always succeeds. Forward always fails.
