Wait, so, 1: there isn't a alsoft.conf file in the game directory

2: If I enter those alsoft commands in my terminal, it won't have unexpected affects on other software, right?

There will be effect on all programs started with these env. vars.
I'm not good in bash, but I think the export-ed env. vars only take effect on all programs started from the shell where you did export, and until you close the shell.

Also the only "unexpected effect" would be OpenAL writing log files.

Hello,

I also had some sound problems with The Dark Mod recently. There is this thread covering an issue related to pulseaudio, but in my case it was something more low-level. I think the OpenAL error was a bit different than yours, but I managed to solve the problem by updating the .asoundrc file this way :

pcm_slave.slavej {
  pcm "hw:0"
  channels 2
  rate 44100
}
pcm.plugj {
  type plug
  slave slavej
}

Always worth a try I guess. i found the solution on on the Arch Linux forum.

      I posted about it before, but I think the default tdm logo video looks outdated. For a (i.m.o.) better looking version, you can download the pk4 attached to this post and plonk it in your tdm root folder. Every mission that starts with the tdm logo then starts with the better looking one. Try for example mission COS1 Pearls and Swine.

      I finished DOOM - The Dark Ages the other day. It is a decent shooter, but not as great as its predecessors, especially because of the soundtrack.
