I'm glad that you or someone else thought of asking for the above
because it slipped my mind and I think that it identifies the problem.
(Everything else looks fine.)
"dns" isn't being queried because you've got avahi installed and so
when it's queried through "mdns4_minimal" and the host's ip isn't
found, it's returning instead of the default "NOTFOUND=continue".
Delete "[NOTFOUND=return]" and try a "host ..." or a "dig ...".
