[SOLVED] systemd-resolve stops resolving DNS after enabling IPv6

I enabled IPv6 on my home connection and all went fine, except that after some time systemd-resolve complete stops working.

The only working solution is to restart it.

Debug output for calling systemd-resolve directly yields this:

Resolving google.de (family AF_INET6, interface *).
Sent message type=method_call sender=n/a destination=org.freedesktop.DBus object=/org/freedesktop/DBus interface=org.freedesktop.DBus member=Hello cookie=1 reply_cookie=0 error=n/a
Got message type=method_return sender=org.freedesktop.DBus destination=:1.9095 object=n/a interface=n/a member=n/a cookie=1 reply_cookie=1 error=n/a
Sent message type=method_call sender=n/a destination=org.freedesktop.resolve1 object=/org/freedesktop/resolve1 interface=org.freedesktop.resolve1.Manager member=ResolveHostname cookie=2 reply_cookie=0 error=n/a
Got message type=error sender=:1.8975 destination=:1.9095 object=n/a interface=n/a member=n/a cookie=450 reply_cookie=2 error=Invalid argument
google.de: resolve call failed: Invalid argument

journalctl also logs an invalid argument error without further details.

I switched to dnsmasq, which seems to be handling this much better than resolved.
