sorry i'm a bit late - here's how i worked around that issue, maybe it's of some help to you (or at least makes it clearer why it works now ).
basically, i make sure the N900 has a valid route to my VPN server, and then define that server's gateway as default gateway. works like a charm

check the openvpn documentation for "scripting variables".

oh, and you _have_ to set "script-security 2", otherwise no scripts will be called.
