The problem is that apparently[*] the machines in your network have default
IPv6 routes, but you don’t have IPv6 connectivity. Fix that and you don’t have
to apply any bandaids. I think we should just remove filter-aaaa in the next
release cycle of BIND 9, having the feature doesn’t do any good for the health
of the Internet.
* - Normally, the ICMP unreachables are generated by local kernel, and based on
the evidences you provided (timeouts) it doesn’t, so something is misconfigured
either in your network or on that particular machine. Debugging your network is
beyond the scope of this mailing list.
