It appears that your DNS returns (and apparently prefers) IPv6
addresses, but your host lacks IPv6 connectivity.

If you were connecting over Tor, you would see similar behaviour with
a DNS name that only resolves to an IPv6 address (like
ipv6.google.com), because only ~15% of exits support IPv6.

And if you don't set the IPv6Traffic on the SOCKSPort, you will never
connect to a remote IPv6 address.
