Android 4.4.4 - Firefox doesn't browse with OpenVPN active

[calculus 4]

Firefox won't open any website with OpenVPN on my Nexus5 phone. Chrome works fine, gmail app pulls email just fine and I can stream music. Also i can connect to anything if i'm using android openvon and work or public wi-if. Works just fine on my laptop connecting with wi-fi. Does anyone else have the same problem?

Yes. Finally got around to installing OpenVpn for Android and creating the opvn files. Vpn connects fine but firefox hangs somewhere. I didn't think the vpn was working until I thought to try Chrome just to be sure as notifications were getting through. Chrome works fine. Anyone else?

I don't think it matters but my phone is actually running Android 5.0.1 after double checking. I installed OpenVPN for Android and also used the "Nightly" builds of Firefox for Android and that works fine with OpenVPN running. I still can't get the regular version of Firefox to load any pages though.
