I think that what you want is only true if d>0. Otherwise you have to worry about possible branch cuts. These are explicitly given in the Mathematica because you asked for dom=Reals. Note that even though they follow from complex analysis, all solutions provided are explicitly real. Note that if you use dom=Complexes, then the result looks much simpler, but is not guaranteed to be real.
