Moving those same commands over to Bash for Windows and launching them there, I'm able to get the play window to run (I'm running Xming on my Windows machine as an X server). Note that some commands do work and display the interface, so I think it's unlikely to be a bad installation.

I've recently hit a IPv6 vs IPv4 issue when not specifying any host/address on the udp elements. You should also check your firewall, udp is often dropped by default.

I've check our CI builds and they are present, so it mean libgstx264 should also be in the official builds:
