Description of the issue

Error when running docker-compose with port bind to external IP address.

Looks related to #3277 but running systemctl restart docker as advised there did not help.

    volumes:

Steps to reproduce the issue

1. Change a port bind in docker-compose.yaml from 4369:4369 to <ip>:4369:4369 (<ip> is a real life external IP which should be the only one with allowed access to that port).
2. Run docker-compose up

Observed result

docker-compose errors and container fails to start.

Expected result

Container should start successfully and allow connections only on the given IP.
