DNS not resolving with lastest version

[vipial1]

Since my HA updated the dns plugin to version 2022.04.1, most of integrations (that require Internet) are failing due to names not being resolved.

As example, HomeConnect integration logs:

Logger: homeassistant.config_entries
Source: helpers/config_entry_oauth2_flow.py:197
First occurred: 6:21:08 PM (1 occurrences)
Last logged: 6:21:08 PM

Error setting up entry Home Connect for home_connect

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

The issue is resolved simply by downgrading to previous version: ha dns downgrade --version 2022.2.0

But after a few hours, HA detects that there is a new version available, it is upgraded to 2022.04.1 and then it starts to fail again.

This is my current dns config (everything is standard):

➜  ~ ha dns info   
fallback: false
host: 172.30.32.3
llmnr: true
locals:
- dns://8.8.8.8
- dns://1.1.1.1
mdns: true
servers: []
update_available: true
version: 2022.02.0
version_latest: 2022.04.1

DNS logs doesn't show anything prompting the error.

The only strange thing that I can observe, is that when DNS are not resolved, nslookup shows strange characters in the response, like a bad encoding (I don't have any example right now, since it is working fine now, will fail again in a few hours).

I had the same issue today. Found it suspicious that the servers list is empty. The workaround for me was to run ha dns options --servers dns://9.9.9.9 (replace with your DNS provider of choice). Now there is an entry in the servers list and resolving works again.
