Comment # 4 on bug 10337 from 
What I meant (now excluding case (a) since you're doing a live capture) is:
does your trace include DNS packets that resolve the names in question?

Given that you're doing a live capture, I strongly suspect that it does.  (You
can use a display filter of "dns" to see these packets.)

The difference between resolved and unresolved addresses *may* be related to
which DNS packets are actually captured but to know for sure I'd have to see a
sample trace.

If you want to disable Wireshark's usage of name resolution from DNS packets
you'd have to adjust the DNS dissector's preference to do so; see:
