I am unable to run PulseAudio on Cygwin.
Operating System: Windows 8 Pro 64 bit
Cygwin Setup.exe Version: 2.831 (64 bit)
PulseAudio Version: 2.1-1
When I run:
pulseaudio -vv
this is the output:
D: [(null)] core-util.c: setpriority() worked.
I: [(null)] core-util.c: Successfully gained nice level -11.
I: [(null)] main.c: This is PulseAudio 2.1

When I instead run
pulseaudio -vv --start
the output is this:

When I ran strace pulseaudio -vv, the red-colored lines in the output were:

Please can someone help me?
