Using MiniProfiler, MiniProfiler.EF6 and MiniProfiler.MVC4 packages. Explicitly wrapping steps and custom timings is working as expected, but raw SQL execution isn’t being picked up e.g.

```
var context = new MyContext(userIdentity);
var sql = "select * from customers where customer_id = @customer_id";
var param = new SqlParameter("customer_id", System.Data.SqlDbType.Int);
param.Value = 123;
context.Database.ExecuteSqlCommand(sql, param);

```

Using latest version of all specified packages. I seem to remember this automatically working in the past, but maybe an update broke it?

```
// called when app starts
MiniProfilerEF6.Initialize(); 
// handles profiling based on cookie, etc
DynamicModuleUtility.RegisterModule(typeof(Modules.MiniProfilerStartupModule));
```

Works for me without issues. Current nugets. Can you remember what change in your app broke this?
