Wireguard - dpinger for gateway doesn't start after reboot

After upgrading to latest version 24.1.4 I noticed a strange issue - when I reboot OPNSense - everything starts fine except the dpinger for my wireguard gateway (shown RED under services) - trying to start it manually doesn't work - but if I go to wireguard and disable it and re-enable it - the dpinger works fine.  Strange  ???

Is WG working for you normally? Only the dpinger GW check is not working?

OPNSense HW
N355 - i226-V | AQC113C | 16G | 500G - PROD

PRXMX
N5105 - i226-V | 2x8G | 512G - NODE #1
N100 - i226-V | 16G | 1T - NODE #2

Seems wireguard was working, just not the dpinger - but I didn't try a wireguard connection - just disabled then re-enabled wirguard and the dpinger worked again . . .

If possible try it.

I now had the chance to reboot and test this issue.  Once again, after a reboot - dpinger doesn't work - but oddly enough, Wireguard is working - but I have to disable it, then re-enable it to get dpinger to start properly ?!?

dpinger has done that for quite a while.  it has nothing to do with wireguard.  i have the issue and found the same resolution w openvpn tunnels
DEC740 > USW-Pro-8-PoE> U6-Enterprise
Dec670. Retired / backup device

Once again to confirm - if I reboot the system - after start, wireguard works but dpinger is RED - I just need to dis-able then re-enable wireguard and dpinger starts by itself . . . strange behavior but not detrimental!
