I figured out more about the zeal bug:
When you have your zeal interrupted (by a block, missed block, getting hit), if you are holding down the attack button then you will immediately start a new zeal. This zeal will always miss.
Now, if your zeal gets interruped and you then click again, as long as you don't click too soon, you will get a normal zeal off.
It seems that the second zeal 'goes off' too soon for any of the attacks to hit. If you make a successfull zeal, that is, one that doesn't get interrupted, then your next zeal will start correctly and you will attack with it normally.
So, in order to play a Paladin now you can't just hold down the zeal attack. You must listen or look for the zeal ending, then click again. I've ben able to play my lvl4 paladin a heck of a lot better now that I've figured this out. Hopefully this advice will prove useful for others.
