I try to kill a process under cygwin. The main process need to kill one its
child process. The child process is playing a music using : 
  system("cat phrase3.wav > /dev/dsp "); 

The main process code is (pidChild is correst) : 
  kill(SIGKILL, pidChild); 

I tried with SIGUSR2 (with a function associated to the SIGUSR2 signal) : same
result.

The opposite is working (child process sending a SIGURS1 to its father - the
father receive the signal and call the matching function).

Does cygwin has a problem to recieve a signal when a problem a process is busy
(command system) ?
