VLT is looking for an AREXX beep routine.  Get yourself in PROGRAM MODE
by selecting MACROS-PROGRAM_MODE-ON with your mouse (or press
right-amiga left-parenthesis).  After that, select the OPERATION-BEEP_
VOLUME function with the mouse and a requestor will come up with the
AREXX beep function in it.  Delete this text and hit RETURN.  Go back to
PROGRAM_MODE-OFF and you're ready to go.  The beep you will be left with
sounds stupid, but no error.  You can also choose volume 0 for an
inaudible/visible beep.  Don't forget to save the configuration by
selecting VLT-SAVE_CONFIGURATION!

Hope this helps out!
