While I cannot be positive that your problem comes from here, I can
say that this is a bad idea. It makes "www" identical to the domain,
for every practical purpose (SRV, MX, etc).

I much prefer two A (and AAAA) records:

; Addresses changed to RFC 3330
www     A       192.0.2.3
@       A   192.0.2.3
