OpnSense + NextDNS + 2 VLAN configs = not working

I'm having an issue putting a separate config on the "kids" vlan. 

I'm *NOT* using unbound DNS. I'm using the CLI version, since I want the kid vlan to filter separately. I have a general config for normal use, and then a config for the kids vlan setup in NextDNS. I've setup both VLANs in OpnSense with their correct DNS settings and scope. 

 

192.168.1.1/24 = main data VLAN

192.168.10.1/24 = Kid VLAN

 

In my OpnSense SSH session, I can test if the appropriate filters work correctly - and they do. 192.168.1.1 should be open/unblocked, and 192.168.10.1 should be blocked. It works just fine via command:

However, on my NextDNS setup, the "Kid VLAN" page shows this error, that it's currently using the main config:

This device is using NextDNS with another profile.This device is currently using ”Main DNS (VLAN1)”.

 

NextDNS config:

report-client-info truediscovery-dnsmdns allhardened-privacy falsebogus-priv trueuse-hosts truetimeout 5smax-ttl 5ssetup-router falsecontrol /var/run/nextdns.sockprofile 192.168.10.0/24=ba2538profile 192.168.1.0/24=c99b8cmax-inflight-requests 256auto-activate truedebug falselog-queries falsecache-size 10MBcache-max-age 0sdetect-captive-portals falselisten localhost:53listen 192.168.1.1:53listen 192.168.10.1:53

Any ideas? I've been trying one thing after another, and it just seems like it's setup correctly - but for some reason OpnSEnse isn't passing through the VLAN10 traffic correctly?

       It looks correct from the CLI point of view. What dns IP is the Kids VLAN being served with? Maybe it’s getting 1.1 instead of 10.1?

      Did you ever figure this out? 

      I'm struggling with a similar issue with my pfSense setup, no matter what, the Kids VLAN always reports being set to the main NextDNS profile ID

    Sorry for the late follow up on this. I ended up getting it working - turns out I had the VLAN interface config on my cisco switch set with some IP Helpers that I had done doing some troubleshooting. once I cleared the config, it worked just fine.
