System tray shows standard WiFi icon while VPN connected all of a sudden

Windows 11.

Did a clean reinstall of windows 11, before this it was fine. I installed my VPN of choice which I have been using for a long time and its always worked out of the box. Everything works fine, its just that Wifi icon doesn’t change and it bugs me as I used it to see if I was connected just by glancing at it. I have kill switches etc so its all cosmetic but Christ its bugging the hell out of me. I’ve never seen a VPN running and NOT switch it to the VPN’s “hardware” icon, ever.

Any ideas on how I can fix this?
