I am having a hard time getting a fresh Kubuntu 21.10 install to access other machines on my network using hostname.local resolution.

I have the following:

  • Kubuntu 21.10 install named jwork - this is the problem machine
  • Ubuntu Server 20.04 install named gimli
  • Raspbian install named plexpi

gimli and plexpi can ping gimli.local, plexpi.local and jwork.local and get a response.

jwork gets no response from any of those, but does get a response from jwork.

Related fact: Spotify on jwork cannot see any devices to cast to on my network. It could when I was on Manjaro before I switched to Kubuntu.

Here are the contents of various files that I have worked out might be relevant:

/etc/resolv.conf

nameserver 127.0.0.53
options edns0 trust-ad
search .

/etc/systemd/resolved.conf

For comparison, here's gimli's resolvectl status:

Can anyone tell me what I need to do to get jwork to start resolving .local domains correctly?
