Odd error running Pinball Dreams via DBGL

Not sure if this can be solved with different settings or not. Whenever I run this game I get a message saying "IF EXIST SOUND.CFG GOTO RUNGAME" (which sounds like code), followed by an error saying "GOTO: Label RUNGAME not found".

At first I thought that meant the game wouldn't run at all, since deleting sound.cfg seemed to fix it temporarily. But then I just went ahead and tried typing "pd.exe" and the game ran without any further issues.

Is there any way of getting around this? It's only a minor inconvenience, but it'd be nice to just skip typing the command, like most games I use DOSBox for.
