Electron websocket connection is paused while system dialog prompts a user. #1951

When you close Octant for the first time you are prompted if you want to minimize to the system tray or exit.

Under Windows, the octant sub-process that is running the Kubernetes stream is closed before you answer.

Restarting Octant completely is the only way to bring it back online and have the port numbers registered properly.

This is a UI artifact of Electron "pausing" network activity during the prompt. So you see the "lost connection" alert.
