Hm, I think the problem comes from using directly OpenVPN with a NetworkManager than owns resolv.conf. Both try to overwrite resolv.conf and NM wins. You should either configure network outside NM (using /etc/network/interfaces), or use network-manager-openvpn for an hopefully integrated experience...
