Istio gateway objects are being parsed and DNS records are being created (this happened a while back, I dont see anything in the log right now). Ingress records are not being parsed, for some reason. I've tried adding --source=service and annotating service with: external-dns.alpha.kubernetes.io/hostname: my.host.name, no effect either.

Any ideas? This looks fine, but somehow doesn't work. Ingress works, cert-manager creates cert, if I manually create DNS record ingress works fine.
