Any ideas why the minimized fails when using wmplayer command ?

The following command almost works except that it tends to open wmplayer in
a window (as opposed to minimized as the "start /min" is instructing it to).
Any ideas why the minimized fails more often than not?

START /d "%ProgramFiles%\Windows Media Player" /min wmplayer
"%windir%\media\Windows Ding.wav"

Previously, I use the following command in Windows XP, it works well:

START/min sndrec32 /play /close %windir%\media\ding.wav

In short, in Windows Vista, how to open WMP use command(wmplayer) with
parameter in minimized mode/appearence?

Thanks a lot!!!
