That was it! The applet finds the tunnel configuration now.

/etc/openvpn was owned by root:root w/ permissions 700. I changed ownership to root:users w/ permission bits 750.

It's a quick fix. From a security standpoint, I think only root should see these files. Should the 's' bit be set on the applet?
