I see that this issue is now resolved, but just for the record: A Prefix Information option is *not* required for announcing a default route. I the Router Lifetime is > 0 then the advertising router is usable as a default router, regardless of the RA options and flags. Sending RAs with no prefix information is perfectly valid if addresses are assigned using DHCPv6 and you don't need any on-link route. For example for the typical ISP scenario, where you don't want L2 connectivity between the end sites anyway.
