Traefik dashboard refuses connection using minikube - traefik

Question

I try to deploy Traefik (v1.7) to local minikube cluster using helm
helm install --values values.yml stable/traefik
values.yml:
dashboard:
enabled: true
domain: dashboard.localhost
kubernetes:
namespaces:
- default
- kube-system
I added dashboard.localhost to the /etc/hosts file
But I can not get access to the dashboard.
curl http://dashboard.localhost:31745/
404 page not found
curl http://dashboard.localhost/
no response...
In a browser:
minikube service list

open http://traefik-ui.minikube
The end result is ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT...

To access dashboard you have to create two services, as explained in traefik docs:
apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
name: traefik-web-ui
namespace: kube-system
spec:
selector:
k8s-app: traefik-ingress-lb
ports:
- port: 80
targetPort: 8080
---
apiVersion: extensions/v1beta1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
name: traefik-web-ui
namespace: kube-system
annotations:
kubernetes.io/ingress.class: traefik
spec:
rules:
- host: traefik-ui.minikube
http:
paths:
- backend:
serviceName: traefik-web-ui
servicePort: 80
and then add an entry in etc/hosts:
echo "$(minikube ip) traefik-ui.minikube" | sudo tee -a /etc/hosts
