What if you replace in both c:\windows\system.ini *and* the registry the mapping of .wav waveaudio files from mciwave.dll to mciqtz32.dll?
That didn't change much - the only difference is the first "the driver cannot recognize the specified command" message was replaced with "there is no display window."
I also tried using mciavi32, but that doesn't work at all: the "invalid device ID" message pops up 9 times, and the audio file is no longer played. All "the driver cannot recognize the specified command" messages are gone, though.
