Getting Refused from stub-zone authoritative query record

Hi,

I don't see this as an Unbound issue; NSD just returns REFUSED to such 
queries.
There seems to be something off with your NSD configuration. Maybe an 
'allow-query:' option or the zone you are requesting is not loaded in NSD.
I would first try to solve that issue with just 'dig' from the same 
Unbound machine. When you manage to get an answer with dig, try then 
with Unbound.

But as I see this may only be related to NSD, asking in that mailing 
list may get you further 
(https://lists.nlnetlabs.nl/mailman/listinfo/nsd-users).

Best regards,
-- Yorgos
