Ken,
Thank you for noticing this. I will check why minimized state causes any
problems. (The beeps are certainly disabled by Windows itself, but
EXEC command should be working still)
By the way have you checked PLAY (or SOUND)
command - this should give you audio alert always.
Best regards,
Tomasz Janeczko
