I had similar problem and I solved it by customizing SwaggerUI url. This is my Configuration method:

public void Configuration(IAppBuilder app)
{
    var thisAssembly = typeof (Startup).Assembly;

    HttpConfiguration httpConfig = new HttpConfiguration();

    app.MapHttpAttributeRoutes();
    app.UseCors(CorsOptions.AllowAll);
    app.UseWebApi(httpConfig);

    httpConfig
        .EnableSwagger("api/{apiVersion}",c =>
        {
            c.IncludeXmlComments(string.Format(@"{0}\bin\Docs.xml", AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory));
            c.SingleApiVersion("v1", "My API");
        })
        .EnableSwaggerUi("{*assetPath}",c =>
        {
            c.CustomAsset("index", thisAssembly, "AspNetIdentity.WebApi.DocsAssets.index.html");
        });

    httpConfig.Routes.First(x => x.RouteTemplate == "{*assetPath}").Defaults["assetPath"] = "index";
}

This way when You go to localhost:44300 You'll get Swagger UI as startup page.
