A simple request/explanation how to prevent minimized VLC window popping up from taskbar/tray when audio visualizations are turned on.

Anyone, please?

It can't be that hard to keep VLC minimized when using video/visualizations when the song changes...

When the song changes.

It doesn't stay minimized, it probably recognizes the visualization itself as a video "file", so when the next song starts, it pops up, just like it does with video files (movies/series).
