Perhaps the zone got updated between your queries.
Have you (as one should in a proper experiment) repeated these queries
to demonstrate that this is happening consistently?
If it is happening consistently, then it's possible that you have *two*
DNS servers listening on the server, one on the UDP socket, and another
on the TCP socket, and they're loaded with different zones.
