Episode 2's launcher seems to crash/never start with AliceModLoader installed.
Apparently, the launcher uses DirectX 3D 9 as well, you can see AML's console appear when starting the launcher.
The crash can be caused by AML loading a module into the process that is attempting to hook a function inside what it thinks is the game. An example would be EP2Debug.
Potential (temporary) fixes:
Use signature scanning within DLL mods that get loaded by AML to avoid trying to hook functions that don't exist.
Disable whatever DLL mod is causing the issue, and submit a bug report to the mod creator.
