Hi,
I don't think there's anything you're doing wrong - I've tested it
myself just now and the option doesn't seem to be doing what it is
supposed to, at least as described in the FAQ.
In order to achieve the same, I simply use 'supersede', i.e.:
send host-name "host";
supersede domain-name-servers 127.0.0.1;
