EIP is not always created or connected to Dashboard
The Dashboard Activity should get the singleton EIP instance or create one if it isn't there. Once it has the instance, it should inflate the EIP Fragment in the View, allowing the user to see status, start/stop, etc.
For some reason this is not always happening. I need to track down why and fix it.
