Can't ssh with domain listed in dns resolver

[zpfs]

I can't ssh into a ubuntu SBC with the domain I've provided however when doing lookup, it's listed under "Non-authoritative answer". The SBC is configured with a static IP (from the board, not pfsense).

So I'm trying to do ssh ubuntu@control.mydomain.local with no luck as it can't resolve it. In the resolver section I have both DHCP Registration and Static DHCP checked. Is there anything I'm missing or need to reboot to take effect?
