I came across an almost identical problem last week :) I'm guessing
it's because your merge module is defined as a subcomponent of a
64-bit folder

Try this instead:

         <Directory Id="TARGETDIR" Name="SourceDir">
             <Directory Id="ProgramFiles64Folder" />
             <Merge Id="wmm" Language="0" DiskId="1"
SourceFile="$(var.WixMergeModule1.TargetPath)" />
         </Directory>
