I'm a French native and the most used in this context would be "de reponse". But to translate literally it would be "une reponse", so you're right. Translating literally is not always the best translation or most correct. This the perfect example. "Ils n'ont pas pu me donner de reponse" is the best translation cause that's what a French native would say.

The answer that is required is "de" unless you are using a definite article.
