Hmm,

A little confused what you are saying; here's what I did:
(my terminology might not be correct kde speak)

At the top of the Konsole
-->Settings
   -->Configure Konsole
      -->Session(at the top)
         -->Execute (entered 192.168.2.80)

save/apply

then sshd into the system and it did not display the
ip address in the tab at the bottom of the Konsole session?

Obviously, I think I missed what you call the 'command field'?
