Thanks Tanu. You were correct. Double backslashes made absolute paths work for
all 3 versions of PulseAudio I tested:
5.0
5.0-121-g38c5d
5.0-121-g38c5d-dirty (the 9 patches applied)
The argument I tested was:
auth-cookie=C:\\Users\\MIKE~1.DEP\\X2GO~1\\pulse\\.pulse-cookie
And I tested launching PulseAudio from the command-line, rather than from
x2goclient.exe, but I consider that a sufficient test for X2Go Client's needs.</pre>
