There is a simple workaround. Enable mobile hotspot before connecting to Softether. After that go to Network Connections and manually share the virtual network adapter to the hotspot connection. If you don’t know what it is, check the current sharing adapter’s settings.

because your answer suggest opposite.

Did you make activate Virtual NAT and Virtual DHCP on the server side or just waiting for autoconfig IP address from the server ??
