I was able to duplicate it, but unsure if it is a machine specific dat issue, or a problem with the Lua plugin.
My initial research seems to suggest something is awry with Lua side of things, so setting confirmed for now.

It's the dat file. "@:maincpu,program,d235,1,03,03" is likely a flag that indicates that it's safe to write the scores but also causes the bug. This can probably be replaced with the @delay mechanism but I don't know what the delay length should be.
