I had some trouble too and tried some complicated setup with wslbridge and other stuff I don't even remember. But in the end I got it easily working by configuring this simple task in ConEmu (everything is working, including arrow keys):

%windir%\system32\bash.exe -c "cd ~ && bash"

If you want the nice Ubuntu icon, add this as task parameter:

-icon "%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\lxss\bash.ico"

You can then use the ConEmu theme of your choice and the colors are far more readable than with the default console. See default theme for instance:
