Long time since I've been working with OpenVPN and routed interfaces but I always used the dynamic approach to setup the needed interfaces. You can create the interfaces for static tunnels with e.g. openvpn --mktun --dev tun0 Maybe there's also a way to do this via udev rules but I'm not sure how viable that is. I think I would bring them up with the physical interface they use via /etc/network/interface running 'up openvpn...'
