pipeProcess not returning immediately

I am running ffplay.exe and my application does not return
immediately from pipeProcess. I have to close ffplay for my
program to continue execution.
pipeProcess is suppose to return immediately/run asynchronously,
and it does with ffmpeg or other programs that return. (which I
do not know if it is returning immediately or not on those
because they execute so quickly)
But I have a feeling it is not running asynchronously at all. Any
ideas? This is on windows and simply calling pipeProcess directly
with a simple "ffplay filename" example.
ffplay opens up a window showing the spectrogram while the file
is playing. After I close it out, my app then does what it is
suppose to. This suggests the pipeProcess is not running
asynchronously.
void ExecuteCommand(T...)(T args)
{
foreach(t; AliasSeq!T)
static assert(is(t == string),
typeof(this).stringof~":"~__PRETTY_FUNCTION__~" requires string
arguments!");
pipes = pipeProcess([args[0], (AliasSeq!args)[1..$]],
Redirect.stdout);
}
call it like
ExecuteCommand("ffplay.exe", "test.wav");
