When answering a QTYPE=* query, if dnscache finds records for the QNAME
in its cache, it will only respond with one record type - CNAME if
possible, else NS if possible, else various others.  If dnscache doesn't
find any cached records (or a cached NODATA/NXDOMAIN), then it will
recursively resolve the domain and return all of the records it gets

Perhaps you should just ask for an SOA, if that's what you want, instead
of asking for ANY.  But I don't know anything about nsupdate.

IIUC, they aren't looking for SOA.  They're getting NXDOMAIN for the
query name and expecting in that case to see the SOA for the *parent*
domain, which dnscache does not provide.
