State lookup fails with "access denied" for firewall policy

[Morgan_Johansso]

I am in the process of setting up Ubuntu Linux (20.04) clients with VPN access using f5epi. Everything works, except for a firewall policy. The client side logs contain:

I assume the issue is that the iptables state check is trying to do something it is not allowed to do locally. Does anyone recognize this problem or have any information on what OesisModule is trying to access in this case?
