Hi, do you mean on the "Network connections"  menu where you select the
network connection to use? If it's correctly listed under "VPN" that you
won't have the "automatically connect to this network at startup", you
need to designate a real network interface that will be brought up on
boot (like wired) and then select on that interface options to
automatically connect to the VPN when brought up.

The VPN is creating a virtual interface (tun0 usually) but it needs
first that an actual interface is up and able to send/receive the
packets for the TLS handshake (and the rest of the packets later too,
actually), so it doesn't look like a bug to me  ? Are you able to check
those two options on any other network connection?
