I had the same issue. The following workaround (local DNS-rebinding) solved that for me. I would still prefer a solution in the add-on itself as there are some preconditions for the workaround:

  1. The ipv6-only nextcloud instance needs to be in the same network as the home-assistant instance (or better: be in principle accessible under a local ipv4 address for home assistant).
  2. You need to be able to define a local DNS-record. In may case I have a local Pi-Hole.

Under these preconditions you can:

  1. Define a local DNS-record that resolves your nextcloud address to its local ipv4 address. In Pi-Hole UI this can be done under „Local DNS -> DNS records“. Alternatively this should also be possible in some routers.
  2. Let your home-assistant use these local DNS-record. This can be done in the home-assistant UI under „Settings -> System -> Network -> Interface -> ipv4/ipv6“. Define a static DNS-resolver with the local address of your Pi-Hole.
  3. In some routers you need to allow local DNS-rebinding to your local nextcloud.
  4. Restart home-assistant to let the add-on use Pi-Hole as well.
  5. This should work as the add-on now gets a DNS A record wich points to your local nextcloud. Obviously the add-on uses only the ipv4 A record and ignores the ipv6 AAAA record.

If you use Pi-Hole you should avoid blocking domains your home-assistant tries to access. Either by whitelisting all blocked domains or (better) by group management (assigning no adlist to the home-assistant group).
