Thanks for the reply. I thought that it connecting to the window server might be the problem. I've tried both the LSUIElement and LSBackgroundOnly in my agent's plist. I assumed the plist for the launch agent app bundle not the plist that is placed in ~/Library/LaunchAgents.
I've tried deleting the launch agent bundle multiple times, rebuilding the launch services registry and multiple restarts in a belief that this setting has been cached and hoped that doing one of these will get the setting LSBackgroundOnly to take. So far without success.
