I have IPv6 activated on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and I receive an IPv6 address
through DHCPv6. However, requests sent through IPv6 fail. For example:

strainu@emily:~$ dig aaaa -6 google.com

; <<>> DiG 9.8.1-P1 <<>> aaaa -6 google.com
;; global options: +cmd
;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached

But:

strainu@emily:~$ dig aaaa google.com

; <<>> DiG 9.8.1-P1 <<>> aaaa google.com
;; global options: +cmd
;; Got answer:
;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 60426
;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 1, AUTHORITY: 4, ADDITIONAL: 4

;; QUESTION SECTION:
;google.com.                    IN      AAAA

;; ANSWER SECTION:
google.com.             94      IN      AAAA    2a00:1450:400d:805::1000


Looking into /etc/resolv.conf, I see:

strainu@emily:~$ cat /etc/resolv.conf 
# Dynamic resolv.conf(5) file for glibc resolver(3) generated by resolvconf(8)
#     DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND -- YOUR CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN
nameserver 127.0.0.1
search lan

And with netstat:

strainu@emily:~$ netstat -ln
Active Internet connections (only servers)

Apparently, the local dnsmasq server does not listen on IPv6, which is
wrong. The server should also listen on ::1:53, to allow IPv6-only
connections. Alternatively, the resolvconf package should write the
actual DNS server received through DHCPv6 in /etc/resolv.conf
