the TSIG-Keys need to have the same name on both sides (same name, same 
algorithm, same key-data ("secret"), same clock-time on the machines).

I recommend to create a dedicated TSIG key with the "tsig-keygen" command, and 
having the DDNS TSIG-key separate from the "rndc" TSIG key.

If you post the full "kea-dhcp-ddns.conf" (and BIND 9 "named.conf") content, 
people here on the list might be able to spot the issue.
