You didn't mention that when i asked you!

The problem with using the standard musicmp3.lua lies in the fact it still points to "music/0  - intro.mid" among other things, hence the impression Timidity++ is required. After changing the bind to "mp3/doom_the_roguelike.mp3" the problem vanished (even though DoomRL still flashes a message about not finding a soundcard).

I recommend changing the default bind for `start` in musicmp3.lua and musiccdmp3.lua to something else. What is used - my theme or something else - doesn't matter to me.

EDIT: Actually, my title track is named something else. Funny i didn't remember, since i'm the one who wrote it. In addition, i recommend that the OGG versions of the tracks are used for music instead of the MP3s, as the MP3s sometimes have problems with looping properly and FPC Valkyrie (and DoomRL by extension) can play OGG music natively.
