It is a much more complex situation than the one you pictured.
In fact VirtualMIDISynth is not an application but a DLL, so it's loaded (as a multimedia driver) by a "hosting" application like a MIDI player.
That's why we don't have a VirtualMIDISynth.exe executable, but VMS DLL is "hosted" by the MIDI client application, and each exe has its own instance of the DLL.
So yes, you have more than one systray icon, but each one belongs to a different MIDI client executable.
A locking mechanism could be implemented to avoid the driver being loaded more than once (and previous versions had it) but it was more a bad than a good thing, so it was removed.
This is an architectural limit that can't be overcome without a deep change.
This change is happening in version 2.x of VMS, that is actually in alpha stage.
Take a look here and, maybe, help debugging it...
