As Moshu describes in http://wordpress.org/support/topic/98861 set the
blog address to where the blog actually is served, ie

I am glad you figured out how to submit a ticket. Welcome to WordPress

Ticket URL: http://trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3933
Closing as INVALID.
What you are doing is not what these WordPress settings are meant to address.
