I've recently got back to using mods, and I've started Minecraft Forge with a completely new and clean slate, with no mods or anything else. Unfortunately, I can't get Minecraft 1.7.10 to launch with the latest version of Forge(10.13.4.1492), and it just seems to get stuck in the loading screen(the one which shows Mojang), as shown here. It appears to always get stuck in the same loading bars.
Here's the log:

Please forgive me if this turns out to be a really simple problem, I might've missed something out as I was installing it.
EDIT: Hmm, this appears to be a problem related to Forge itself. Something related to the sound library loader and the new Forge loading screen, as I've tried the last version without it and it works pretty fine.
