I encountered the same problem with DigiCert.

I was trying to verify ownership OF A SUBDOMAIN (e.g. sub.example.com) and I was given a TXT record to add to my DNS. I added it to the subdomain sub.example.com but the verification kept failing. It wasn't until I added it to my domain (example.com) that the verification succeeded. Who thought that was a good idea?

It was especially frustrating since I had verified ownership of the domain minutes before. Why do I have to do it again for every subdomain?
