Re: extending the VPN to the WiFi clients
Did you ever get this resolved, im in a similar situation traffic from clients connected via hotspot will not route through the openvpn client. I have tested the PIA client/app and traffic will pass successfully through that.
My openvpn client connects to pfsense not sure if this is a pfsense config issue.

Re: extending the VPN to the WiFi clients
It's possible to route Wi-Fi clients connected to an OpenVPN client through the VPN tunnel. Configure the VPN client to route all traffic and set up the device as a Wi-Fi hotspot using the VPN connection. Consult the device's operating system and VPN client documentation for specific instructions.
