We just covered this a few days ago here on this list... you might run
over and check the archives out.  ;-)

Run your connections over the bridged interface.  Bridging is a level
lower than any virtual IP crap.  Create the bridge, establish whatever
connections you need to for the VPN, then add thet tap0 interface to it.

Bridging takes over everything for the hardware interface.
