OpenVpn IP leases - issue with same IP's being assigned to multiple clients

Hi All

I have openvpn running and a client specific override in place, pfsense 2.3.3

My issue which I have only just noticed, is that two separate vpn clients are receiving the same IP tun address, whereas before they would easily negotiate that someone already had that IP address. Obviously dependent on who is last, wins. I have the override in for a static assignment to a service.

How can I ensure that my overrides retain their set IPs and any other client connecting gets remaining IP's.
or
How can I clear the lease table to ensure that when my other clients connect they receive anything BUT the specific override IP address.

I have a subnet of 192.168.4.0/24 and my client override is 192.168.4.3

Should I set the tunnel network to start at a different range such as 192.168.4.10/24 and leave the overrides to fill in the lower range? Would that work?

Thanks in advance
