Troubleshooting • dnsmasq refuse SOA <Root> requests

I have a Pi (mypi) running dnsmasq in a subnet with static address. DHCP is handled by the router, so dnsmasq only handles DNS-requests within the subnet.

The dnsmasq config is really simple

domain-needed
bogus-priv
strict-order
no-resolv
server=192.168.120.1
no-dhcp-interface=wlan0
cache-size=1000
no-negcache
address=/mypi.domain.local/192.168.120.2
auth-server=mypi.domain.local,wlan0
auth-zone=subnet.domain.local,192.168.120.0/24

But when I try to connect it to a Windows Server 2009 I can see than server sends a "SOA <Root>" DNS query request, but mypi replies with a DNS quesry response "Refused SOA <Root>".

Does anyone have hint on what the cause to this is ?
