Thank you for taking the time to report bugs and trying to make Ubuntu Server better.
Unfortunately, this doesn't really seem like a bug of OpenVPN but rather ppp is probably not setting the default gateway when it should. Reading [1], we can confirm that OpenVPN *needs* the default route in this case, to be able to function properly.
Now, in your PPP configuration you should be able to specify a default route a should set it as specified by [2] (since it seems like an old bug and fixed already)
Furthermore, there's a work around to generate the default gateway automatically and can be found at [3].
Based on the information above, I'd say this bug should be set to "Wont Fix".However, as there a related Debian bug, I'll keep it open as incomplete.
