bad firewall states for VOIP and WG tunnels after opnsense reboot

[CanadaGuy]

If I reboot the OPNsense host, the wireguard and SIP VOIP encounter issues with what appear to be stale or bad states in the firewall table. I can clearly see the states, delete them, and instantly restore connectivity. This only happens after a reboot.

My wild guess is that the stuck states are there from connection attempts during OPNsense boot. For some reason, the firewall still sees the state as valid, but neither WG or my SIP VOIP work.

No other services have issues.

Thoughts?
