Serving local subdomains

Trying to migrate from dnsmasq to unbound, I have a problem getting the setup to match.

I have domain example.com which is hosted by our website service provider so I can browse to http://example.com/ (no www needed). I also run a web server locally for various in-house systems which are
subdomains of example.com - e.g mail.example.com, apex.example.com etc.

If I try to use config lines such as:

local-data: "mail.example.com. IN A 192.168.0.14"
local-data:  "example.com. IN MX 1 mail.example.com"
local-data: "apex.example.com. IN A 192.168.0.10"
local-data-ptr: "192.168.0.14 mail.example.com"

I then cannot browse to http://example.com/ and I am currently having to add a config line containing the actual IP address of the website at our hosting provider:

local-data: "example.com IN A <website ip-address>"

Can anyone help me get this setup the right way?

Neil.
