Trying run Valgrind remotely, but Qt Creator trying to access invalid IP address

[fcarney]

Qt Creator version 5.0.3
Remote Linux target running Arm
Qt version 5.15.1

Our device we run our code on is 10.0.10.43. I have put valgrind on this device in /opt/valgrind. I have set the path in for valgrind in the Run settings for valgrind to /opt/valgrind/bin/valgrind. I have logged into this remote device and valgrind when run with no arguments says it needs an executable. This seems to work as intended.

When I attempt to run valgrind remotely it asks for the host password (normal) and I enter in the password. Then it gives me this strange error:

Error: "/opt/valgrind/bin/valgrind" could not be started: XmlServer on 10.0.10.136: The address is not available

That IP address does not exist on our network and is not specified anywhere in our settings. Why is qt creator trying to contact this IP address? Shouldn't it be attempting to run valgrind from here /opt/valgrind/bin/valgrind on the remote system?
