This is time for "stupid questions":

Is your host able to get a response from the

dig @<root-name-server-address> . ns +norec

command?  Pick one or more root name server addresses from your
hints file.

If it can't, your unbound recursor won't be able to do its
"priming" query, and will respond with SERVFAIL when asked about
anything and all.
