You can bind qbittorrent to the vpn network interface. If it's not there, no traffic. That's my approach.
how do you do this? I use Linux btw
On linux, connections can have some weird names so you need to figure out the name of your VPN connection.
In qBittorrent go to Settings > Advanced > Network Interface and see what connections are available. Then connect to VPN and see what new connection appeared on the interfaces list - it will be the VPN you just connected to, possibly "tun0". Select it and you're good.
My mind autocompleting before finishing reading: "I use Linux Arch by the way tips fedora"
My approach here is that I use docker. Check out gluetun.
Look in the network settings, you should see the option there. I'm not on my notebook right now, so I can't tell exactly, sorry...
This should be bulletproof, right? When Gluetun can't connect it will kill traffic
