I have simple yet annoying issue with MIDI sounds, or rather not hearing them in win98SE unless I'll launch autoexec.bat from windows itself then they load and work. How can I fix this?

My next issue is detecting AWE32 in games, this usually works but often I see AWE32 couldn't be detected. Under windows and DOS mode everything works but DOS window and AWE Control Panel have a problem (playback plays no notes unless autoexec.bat reloaded after windows started). I don't think 32MB RAM upgrade for the card itself causes this.

My autoexec.bat:
mode con codepage prepare=((852) C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\ega.cpi)
mode con codepage select=852
keyb pl,,C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\keybrd4.sys
SET SOUND=C:\SB16
SET BLASTER=A220 I5 D1 H5 P330 E620 T6
SET MIDI=SYNTH:1 MAP:E MODE:0
SET CTCM=C:\SB16\CTCM
C:\SB16\CTCM.EXE
SET PATH=C:\SB16\CTCM\DRV
C:\SB16\DIAGNOSE /S
C:\SB16\MIXERSET /P /Q
C:\SB16\AWEUTIL /S

My config.sys:
LASTDRIVE=Z
device=C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\display.sys con=(ega,,1)
Country=048,852,C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\country.sys
DEVICE=C:\SB16\CTCM.EXE
