I have had the best luck using the 'run' utility to avoid extra
consoles and other 'shtuff' like that.
Haven't seen any doc about it though so it may disappear.
Dunno the details.

For example, I create a shortcut for running X so that I don't 
get the extra console window where bash ran...

That shortcut runs this:
C:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin\run.exe bash --login -c startx

Clearly your path needs to be setup correctly.

  is used to thinking about. Software is something like a machine, and 
  something like mathematics, and something like language, and 
  something like thought, and art, and information... 
  but software is not in fact any of those other things."
