I found the solution in this (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=47947) other thread.
Basically, I ran ac3fix.exe on both audio tracks, deleted the MUX directory, and recovered in DVD2SVCD at the DVD Authoring stage.
I hope this information helps others.
Below is the original post:

I've searched around for this issue but couldn't find anything. Here goes:
I'm trying to encode Alien: Collector's Edition using DVD2SVCD 1.2.1 build 3, CCE 2.5, and Scenarist 2.7. I ripped into an .iso image using DVD Decryptor, mounted the image using Daemon Tools, and encoded straight from the vitual drive. The first time Scenarist crashed, I recognized it as a zero chapter length error. I applied my usual manual fix: delete the last chapter from the dvd2svcd chapters file.ini and the DVD Maestro Chapters File.chp. I then recovered from the DVD Authoring step.
I eventually encountered a Layout Failed message from Scenarist.
Here is the log from Scenarist:
