I don't know the answer, but I suspect that you are asking the wrong
question. Your setup is a very common one, so it seems a bit unlikely
any special bodging is required (and that no-one is complaining about
it). The ppp startup script is supposed to resync pf after starting
ppp. 

I'm wondering if there is anything unusual in you ppp.conf or  rc.conf
entries.
