So, if you try to use the resolver at the local IP from the machine it's
running on (the non-localhost IP assigned to the machine - presumably
192.168.x.y - should work even if it is the same machine as localhost),
does it work as intended?  If so, perhaps you have BIND configured to react
differently to queries from 192.168.x than "anywhere else" ? This article:

https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-configure-bind-as-a-caching-or-forwarding-dns-server-on-ubuntu-14-04

shows a bit of the potential logic that matches how I've seen bind
configured - some subnets get special treatment (search for 'goodclients')
but you have to in effect opt-in localhost/localnet separately and
explicitly.
