I'm no pro, but love the SlimServer/MusicIP combination and have been
running it for a while.  The big thing is that MusicMagicMixer has to
have its API service turned on (regardless of whether it's the headless
or GUI version), and it needs to be running before SlimServer starts.

However!  At least as a temporary workaround, you can go to the Server
Settings->Plugins page and tell Slimserver to load plugins on the fly
instead of at startup only.  Make sure MusicMagic is checked.  In the
event that SlimServer loads before MusicMagic, you just navigate to
server settings->plugins after MusicMagic has started, and SlimServer
will start using it again.

For a more permanent fix, I'm assuming you're running on Windows since
you talked about services.msc.  I did find a site that describes how to
edit the registry to make one service dependent on another: 
http://www.boyce.us/windows/servertipcontent.asp?ID=7.  However, I
don't know if slimserver runs as a service on Windows, someone else
will have to jump in on that!
