incompatibility with Cute Chess

Wanting to run machine-vs.-machine games but feeling frustrated, confused, and humiliated by XBoard and Arena, I turn to cutechess-cli, which is able to run, e.g. GNUChess:

$ time cutechess-cli -engine cmd='gnuchess --uci' -engine cmd='gnuchess --uci' -each proto=uci tc=40/60 -rounds 3 -pgnout gnuchess_self-play.txt
Started game 1 of 3 (GNU Chess 6.2.2 vs GNU Chess 6.2.2)
Finished game 1 (GNU Chess 6.2.2 vs GNU Chess 6.2.2): 0-1 {Black mates}
Score of GNU Chess 6.2.2 vs GNU Chess 6.2.2: 0 - 1 - 0  [0.000] 1
Started game 2 of 3 (GNU Chess 6.2.2 vs GNU Chess 6.2.2)
Finished game 2 (GNU Chess 6.2.2 vs GNU Chess 6.2.2): 1/2-1/2 {Draw by 3-fold repetition}
Score of GNU Chess 6.2.2 vs GNU Chess 6.2.2: 0 - 1 - 1  [0.250] 2
Started game 3 of 3 (GNU Chess 6.2.2 vs GNU Chess 6.2.2)
Finished game 3 (GNU Chess 6.2.2 vs GNU Chess 6.2.2): 0-1 {Black mates}
Score of GNU Chess 6.2.2 vs GNU Chess 6.2.2: 0 - 2 - 1  [0.167] 3
ELO difference: -279.59 +/- nan
Finished match

But it doesn't work for cicada (disconnecting instantly):

$ time cutechess-cli -engine cmd=./cicada/target/release/cicada -engine cmd=./cicada/target/release/cicada -each proto=uci tc=40/60 -rounds 1
Started game 1 of 1 (Cicada vs Cicada)
