noipdefault is supposed to just tell pppd not to try to determine the
default local ip from the hostname (a bad idea anyway). As long as you
specify a local ip it shouldn't matter whether noipdefault is present or
not.

Do you have 'ipcp-accept-local' set somewhere? From the pppd man page:
<local_IP_address>:<remote_IP_address>
Set the local and/or remote interface IP addresses.
Either one may be omitted. The IP addresses can be
specified with a host name or in decimal dot nota�
tion (e.g. 150.234.56.78). The default local
address is the (first) IP address of the system
(unless the noipdefault option is given). The
remote address will be obtained from the peer if
not specified in any option. Thus, in simple
-> cases, this option is not required. If a local
-> and/or remote IP address is specified with this
-> option, pppd will not accept a different value from
-> the peer in the IPCP negotiation, unless the ipcp-
-> accept-local and/or ipcp-accept-remote options are
-> given, respectively.
