On a clean balena push of this repo (v2.0.0), accessing browser control fails (error: "Connection refused (127.0.0.1:5011)"). Any idea what could cause this? In my local network, I can access the kiosk mode api using e.g. curl XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:5011/url and get the correct answer from the express server. Why can't I use browsercontrol to do the very same thing?

Hey tommy

I had the exact issue as you did. The Problem on my side could be resolved by changing "browser ip address" from 127.0.0.1 to the actual ip address of the device.
