MSN Messenger attention effect and autohide

This is how I have my docks set up: http://img260.imageshack.us/my.php?image=desktop0wk1.jpg

I have a Dock at the bottom with the "Show dock as a drawer" option turned on.
There's a tab "Tray" with the systray icons.

There's also a autohide dock on the left edge, with the "Show running tasks on the dock" option on. I use it to quickly change between running programs (like using ALT+TAB)

The problem is that when messenger is running it won't show the "attention effect" when I get a message, because of the "autohide" option.

Is there any way to make it show, keeping the current setup?
How are you guys running messenger with objectdock?
Thanks for the help

the only way i found is with the bounce attention effect, so it appears at the side of the screen. it's not as good as if the dock "autoshows" but it's what i'm using
