Toggle your defining soffit line to be a slope to follow the roof.

For future reference, I just figured this out. Use a slope arrow. Then in the properties of the arrow you set the constraints to slope and that will let you set the slope to match your roof.

you can do what MrBob said. Create a roof>soffit, then add your slope arrow to give it the slope you need. I have also incorporated my soffit into my fascia profile, so when I do a fascia sweep, the soffit appears with the fascia. very easy to do.
