Sound makes cygwin/xfree86 lock up

I'm using cygwin/Xfree86 to login to a KDE session on a Linux host using
XDMCP. Everything works fine until the client requests a service that
the server can't provide such as sound. When that happens the server
locks up and becomes unresponsive. The only way to recover is to
restart the cygwin/XFree86 server and login again to the nost compter.
Needless to say this is very frustrating.
Does anyone know of a way to prevent this from happening other than not
do anything that requests sound support (or any other service that
cygwin?XFree86 can't provide)?
Thanks,
Tom
