When you server dc=example,dc=com from a server named ldap.example.com
then you should ldap.example.com as the domain name, not example.com 
(as per RFC 6698, Section 3, point 3).  Your record will then be
"_389._tcp.ldap.example.com. IN TLSA ...".

As indicated, this may not yet be done in client / peer implementations.
