i think you might be able to do `loadBalancerIP.(pulumi.StringOutput)`

thanks for the feedback, applying the type directly like this I get a panic
```interface conversion: pulumi.Output is pulumi.AnyOutput, not pulumi.StringOutput```
when running `pulumi up`

Looks like you are running into <https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/issues/6073>.

As noted in the latest comment there - you should be able to workaround that with this:

```// To workaround #6073, convert from `interface{}` to `string`
x1 := x.ApplyT(func(v interface{}) string {
    return v.(string)
}).(pulumi.StringOutput)```


Hah I was running into a similar issue, praise be!
