Using AdguardHome and Control D on OPNsense - help needed

My current setup is ADGH is running on 53 with its upstream pointing to Unbound on an alternate port. For Unbound, I have DOT set up to use NextDNS and it works well.
I want to test with Control D in this role vs NextDNS. I thought using the DOT hostname they provided, port 853, and an IP address of something like 76.76.2.11 would set it up - and it seemed okay. Enabled this, disabled the NextDNS entries, and DNS continues to work for the most part.
Thing is, even after creating a device and playing with different Control D settings I can't see any traffic or other analytics reflected. Running an online DNS check, it does appear Control D's servers are being used though. I did also run into a Zoom call being blocked this morning and when I disabled the Control D entry and re-enabled the NextDNS items I was good to go.
I know there is a CLI command that will run an automated install, but I'm worried it assumes Control D will be the primary resolver or that it may do other undesired things. Does anyone have a setup working and if so, would you share the secrets to success?

Heya, I'm from Control D. Your assumption is partially correct, but there are ways to avoid it. See this guide I wrote:
