See the associated Arch Linux bug at the link below:

* https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/52368

The root of the issue is the removal of the 'tls-remote' option in OpenVPN v2.4 and the continued use of this option in the plasma-nm (or whatever component is responsible) OpenVPN generated configurations.
