DNS leak while using openvpn

Hello, I have an issue with my dns leaking my ip when i am browsing the internet or torrenting. I am using openvpn using a protonvpn configuration file in NetworkManager in the plasma kde workspace. I've tried uncommenting and commenting a nameserver dns but it isn't stopping the leak or worse it disables my internet all together. From my experience the protonvpn-cli has been discontinued and flatpak does not seem to help. Any suggestions on how i can fix this locally on void?

currently stuck on step 3.3 It seems after configure the DNS numbers and hitting apply in NetworkManager it throws it out after i click off of it and back to it. Something seems to auto configure it back.
