Adjusting Windows Media Player v6.4's volume control changes XP's Play Control

Hello.

I noticed the last few days, Windows Media Player v6.4 (yes, I still use
it to play videos; don't like Windows Media Player 9.0) likes to change
the Wave audio volume in Windows XP's volume control/mixer. I never had
this problem in the past.

Is there a way to undo this or prevent this? It is annoying. I am using
Windows XP Professional SP2 with all updates and an Audigy2 ZS sound
card (latest drivers). Did I misconfigure somewhere by accident?

Thank you in advance. :)
