I had a similar problem that the app runs differently. My solution was to use 'open -a /System/Library/CoreServices/Finder.app <MyAppPath>' which tells open to get Finder to do the actual launching.

Be aware that the user may not be using Finder (e.g PathFinder instead), so you may want to see who is running and get that app to do the launch
