Change the shortcut properties just like you would any type of application shortcut, no matter how it's delivered. See this for an example: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/416957/change-a-shortcuts-target-from-command-prompt

Okay, but what I really wanted is that the shortcut published from App-V already has this option set when deployed to the user.
The program I have is in the Startup folder and I don't want it to start visible. I could of course make an startup script from your example, but what I really want to know is if App-V can do this somehow in the .xml file...

No, it can't. Manage those shortcuts just look you would any other application delivery mechanism.
