Does anyone have experience with this?

This is because mediaplayer is already loaded I think. Instead of calling mediaplayer with a file, you might want to try a dbus call (from the wiki):

Code:

dbus-send --dest=com.nokia.mediaplayer /com/nokia/mediaplayer com.nokia.mediaplayer.mime_open string:"file:///$1"
