Subject: [PATCH] Fix #5918

The method clean_dashboard_address will also return an empty string. In this case the start_address should be used which will account for the "host" parameter used when specifying a Cluster

This will fix the bug a firewall popup will be created even if `Localcluster(host=localhost)` is specified
