v1.33.1 - Apple M3 - DNS issue: failed to resolve reference / connection refused

What Happened?

After the successful start of minikube on an Apple M3, I'm unable to start running any pod.

Start a fresh new cluster

Delete any possible previous configuration: minikube delete --all --purge

Start a new cluster with qemu2 driver, socket_vmnet network and containerd runtime

minikube start --container-runtime=containerd

The error suggests that it's a DNS issue

Check DNS settings within minikube.

I'm able to query both quay.io and docker.io from the minikube container (minikube ssh)

query docker.io (no issues)

$ resolvectl query docker.io

So, wha't the problem?

That's why I'm trying to figure it out. Using the tools within the minikube pod, all this shouldn't be a problem, but here we are. I would appreciate any help as I'm on this for quite some weeks now.

Thanks in advance.
