Read the docs or forms and simplexml.  You can just "unset" the control's form and value manually to force it to reset to it's default value.

Tokens will persist even if the drop down list is no longer visible - you could try unsetting the token when the input is hidden. You have already been shown how to do this.

        </condition>
        <condition value="Admin">
             <unset token="show_address"></unset>
