It is not an error and it falls back to IPv4.
You can explicitly chose protocol by --proto
option
Where
option can be: udp, udp4 or udp6 .. or tcp, tcp4 or tcp6
The manual has this:
The Manual wrote:proto
indicates the protocol to use when connecting with the
remote, and may be "tcp" or "udp".
For forcing IPv4 or IPv6 connection suffix tcp or udp
with 4/6 like udp4/udp6/tcp4/tcp6.

It is not an error and it falls back to IPv4 .. but in your case it is falling back to v6
We do not support pfSense .. they have their own forum.
If you want to learn about openvpn try the howto .. it is very easy to find ..
If you are still stuck then please read this:
