      In source don't put any port…if Plex ask to go with 32400 the static port preserve natting the port.
      In the transaltion section, in address you should be able to select "network address".... do you have other options?

        I can only choose from my host aliases and "other subnet".

          Use exactly "interface address"

            Still the same results.. Reposting my rules in the attached picture. Does it matter that I have rules to forward traffic coming in on 32400 via the WAN activated the same time as I have the corresponding rule but for traffic coming in from OPT1 (VPN)?

              Can you post the gareway screenshot and interface assignement…
              Opt1 is the VPN gateway? Or the interface assigned to plex subnet?

                      @Wolf666:

                      I don't have any other idea…sorry.

                      Hey Wolf I just wanted to tell you (and anyone else with this weird problem) that I solved it. After spending an hour or so googling yet another time I found a thread where a guy had issues not very different from mine. He received the advise to remove all rules under the OpenVPN tab under rules. After I did that it worked. The rule I had there was automatically created from the OpenVPN server wizard that I had run a while back. Really weird but it did the trick!
