btcpayserver-docker: Cannot connect to LND peer over tor

Hi, I cannot connect to a BTC LND peer over tor using their node_id@onion address. I am using BTC and LND successfully with Joule and the RTL web service. Also, the web services work correctly through tor. But when I attempt to connect to “yall’s” onion lnd node I get no such host. Is this supposed to be possible?

# ./bitcoin-lncli.sh connect 03489ffbec21f45660a34dbb5e05adc9fd53192aadaee4c0089d3438565abf9a34@4u5ms4fzlny7lace.onion

[lncli] rpc error: code = Unknown desc = dial tcp: lookup 4u5ms4fzlny7lace.onion: no such host

# echo $BTCPAYGEN_ADDITIONAL_FRAGMENTS

Here is the problem:

Routing everything through TOR make clearnet traffic more instable
But we want to be able to connect to a remote note through tor.
