Sanity check: b7639d58158c6e971535893b407560e136a27994 and _not_
10068600f889338d942c7206c98e889bb3a17d57? I'd expect the later to
cause this, if any.

Where is your laptop's record coming from? DHCP, /etc/hosts or other?
Can you do the query with dig directly to dnsmasq, and see what it's
actually replying to BIND?


Cheers,

Simon.
