Tmux terminal does not support --blength

Starting tmux in a terminal gives the message "setterm: terminal tmux does not support --blength".
I've tried different terminals via set-g default-terminal "____" to no avail. 
Tmux starts and functions perfectly fine as far as I can tell.  I would like to find the source of the error message though.  Any ideas would be awesome.  Thanks.

Re: Tmux terminal does not support --blength

Are you intentionally seting the bell length?  I have used an audible bell in .... I don't remember *ever* using it.  I explicitly disable it as one of the first steps of every installation.  It seems somewhere in a startup file you are explicitly setting a bell length with setterm/set.

Thanks.  I was disabling the bell with xset -b.

Re: Tmux terminal does not support --blength

Update: xset -b was unrelated.  Somehow the line setterm --blength 0 had been put into /etc/profile.  Just in case anyone else runs into this.
