first of all, let me see if I get it straight what the problem is:

"When I "wake" the computer, the tunnel is down. No traffic is passed, 
there is nothing in the openvpn log file. Once I restart the service, 
the tunnel works normally again."

this happens on Vista and higher, which use NDIS 6; according to this page
   https://kc.mcafee.com/corporate/index?page=content&id=KB67109

there are issues with resuming from sleep when an NDIS 5 driver is used 
- this is a Microsoft issue, not an OpenVPN issue.
Have you tried the NDIS 6 tap-win32 driver
http://swupdate.openvpn.org/community/releases/openvpn-install-2.3.6-I601-i686.exe

does the same problem occur ? what errors are you seeing?

Having said that, I fully agree with both Gert and Samuli that this 
issue needs "external" resolving: the current OpenVPN developers do not 
have the time to address it on short notice.

HTH,
