NoMachine client fails to connect to a custom session in floating window mode under some conditions

In case Windows client delays the startup of local display service (for example because of slowness in reading
configuration files located on a network-mounted volume), the NoMachine client fails to display floating window session.

A message like

    ServerChannel/ChannelBase: WARNING! Finishing channel for FD#-1 with local congestion.

in the client session log is usually a sympthom of such situation. That failure occurs because the client tries to connect to the display service when this latter is not started yet.
