You can force a zone transfer by issuing this on your slave:

rndc retransfer domain.com

Maybe throw that in cron if you want it to do it every 5 minutes...

All changes on a conf file, like bind, needs to restart it, by rule, otherway you will expect some troubles. The dns service , like many others, are made to work with the less changes possible because many domains in production mode doesnt need changes. If you can tell us why you need that behavior may be we can help
