OpenVPN network interface for qBittorrent (lemmy.ml)

I want to run only qBittorrent through my VPN but with my current setup, I have a namespace for OpenVPN and qBittorrent runs entirely through it. The issue with that is that Sonarr and Radarr can't access it. Because of that, I would like to switch my setup to use a network interface instead. What would be the best way to do that?

Edit: I used this guide, with some changes to make it work on my setup, to set it up. I can also post my docker-compose file here if anyone's interested.

Here's an example docker-compose.yaml for gluetun with Nordvpn and qBittorrent"

version: "3"

    image: qmcgaw/gluetun
    container_name: gluetun
    cap_add:
      - NET_ADMIN
    devices:
      - /dev/net/tun:/dev/net/tun
    ports:
      # this makes qBittorrent's web UI accessible on localhost:8080
      - "127.0.0.1:8080:8080"
    environment:
      # See https://github.com/qdm12/gluetun-wiki/tree/main/setup#setup
      - VPN_SERVICE_PROVIDER=nordvpn

  qbittorrent:
    image: lscr.io/linuxserver/qbittorrent:latest
    container_name: qbittorrent
    network_mode: "service:gluetun"
    environment:
      - PUID=1000
      - PGID=1000
      - TZ=Europe/Berlin

    volumes:
      - ./config:/config
      - ./downloads:/downloads
      - ./torrents:/torrents
    restart: unless-stopped

You can use qBittorrent's API (enable it in the settings) to add magnet links. I have a small wrapper tool for that, so I can just click on a magnet link in the browser and it gets added to the queue.
