I changed the rules to the following for the DNS and seems to have fixed
the DNS blocks. But, are "dynamic" rules now....

# ${fwcmd} add pass tcp from any to ${oip} 53 setup
# ${fwcmd} add pass udp from any to ${oip} 53
# ${fwcmd} add pass udp from ${oip} 53 to any
# ${fwcmd} add pass udp from ${oip} to any 53 keep-state
