Could you post the actual tcpdump(1) output,
# tcpdump -vvvn 'udp && port 53'
Just in case you are missing something.

Hmmmm...
Could we double-check the firewall issue,
$ sysctl net.inet.ip.fw.enable net.inet.ipf.fr_running
And see the full output of,
$ netstat -s -p udp
$ netstat -an -p udp
$ host testhost # your DNS test here
$ netstat -s -p udp
$ netstat -an -p udp
