Pulseaudio using WSL E: [(null)] pulsecore/pid.c: Daemon already running

I'm fairly new on Linux, I've been playing with WSL on Windows 10 using Ubuntu, and I've managed to learn how to open GUI programs and I could take it one step further by using this tutorial which allowed me to run GUI apps even with sound, it was awesome until I ended my session and stopped the pulseaudio server, then next time I tried to run it I was met with these two error messages:

E: [(null)] pulsecore/pid.c: Daemon already running.E: [(null)] daemon/main.c: pa_pid_file_create() failed.

I've looked everywhere without being able to find out a solution, I tried running the commands pulseaudio.exe -k --kill to kill daemon but for what I could research, these commands won't work on Windows 10. And using taskkill to end pulseaudio.exe won't end daemon properly, anyone got any idea? I'd love some help! thank you!
