MP3 in VB does not loop seamlessly

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

I have tried using both the Windows Media Player control as well as
the mciSendString method for playing an MP3 within my Visual Basic
2003 app. The problem is that when the MP3 is looping there is always
a small bit of silence between when the sound ends and begins again. I
have verified that the sound I am testing with loops perfectly without
any pause or silence at the end of the sound when looping. Does anyone
know how to make it so that I can play an MP3 seemlessly without the
audible pause when looping. (I have done it with a wav file using
winmm.dll successfully without the audible pause between loops)
