The problem was that I was selecting the option to start the slave task whether the user was logged on or not. This option was blocked in our company policy. Weird that slave acted as if everything was alright but, misbehaved. I had to select the option to start when the user was logged on. And additionally I had to also specify the "Start in (optional)" option in the task so windows knows the path where to begin.
