Shrug. This looks like a KOMA bug to me. If you nest the dictum environment 
into a chapterpreamble, it works. You have to use some ERT like in the 
attached file and place the whole thing *above* the chapter heading.

BTW: You can toggle dictum fonts with
\setkomafont{dictumtext}{\normalfont\normalcolor\small}
in the preamble.
