Expected Behaviour:
Queries should be forwarded to Unbound on local port 127.0.0.1:5335
Actual Behaviour:
Queries instead are being redirected to Upstream Google Server (dns.google#53)
Unbound is configured correctly and resolving queries:

Nevertheless, after setting the Upstream DNS server to Custom 127.0.0.1#5335 entries are still being redirected to Google dns upstream servers for some reason on port #53.

Have configured Unbound per this guide.
Have tweaked it a bit to add TLS support, but not using DNSSEC.
Config file here:

Can't think of what's really causing the problem here. Arch-Wiki mentions that there's an issue with using php8 and the dns settings not being saved, but even changing to php7 the issue persists. Also use a VPN but that doesn't seem to affect the connection at all as I have tried running Pi-hole with and without it with the same results.
If you guys could point me in the right direction I'd be grateful.
