Default Program Change to VST not always working... Ideas?

I've noticed that if I set up a VST to respond to MIDI PC messages, it only seems to work correctly if the VST is focused, or at least "open" (ie. it's window is somewhere on screen, not closed in the FX chain)...

Is this a bug? Is there some way to get VST PC to work even if the VST in question is not active, focused, etc.?

One way is to insert the program change in the MIDI stream by hand.
This is probably not how you want to use it, but it obviously works fine.
If you decide to try it, just open your MIDI track with the view set to event list editor and add the prgram change on the MIDI time line where you want it. Dead easy.
