PortAudio happens to be the library squeezelite uses to access audio
devices.  Its a cross platform library.  I have no idea why but it is
returning an error on this box.  SLX just executes squeezelite-win.exe
and it is failing.  Generally if squeezelite fails for some reason SLX
will detect it and provide the error message you saw "Squeezelitewin.exe
aborted...check parameters".  However, SLX also uses squeezelite to
return the list of output devices and I never expected that to fail and
was not detecting the failure there.  On startup, SLX would do this in a
background thread, and since it was not detecting the failure, the
thread was not returning and you got a hang.  So I eliminated that in
the test version 2.4.2.1.  In 2.4.2.1 SLX detected the failure of
squeezelite and showed you the error.

BUT, I have no idea why squeezelite is failing to initialize its
PortAudio library and having an internal error.  I would recommend going
over to the squeezelite forum and asking there and maybe Ralphy can give
you an answer.
