Yes, I couldn't help noticing that either when I last applied my little 
mod, and have noted it.  Alas, sounds come from pak files over physical 
files in the id1 directory.  I'm not entirely sure why that's the case 
when gamecode is unaffected.  I'm also not entirely certain whether using 
the id1 directory for "Loose" files is even sanctioned at all.

Anyway, the solution for now is to create a higher-numbered pakfile and 
store your media in it in the id1 directory.  Alternatively, of course, 
use the +gamedir to the engine and specify a location for your sounds 
(though that's harder to deploy to others without breaking something).  
When Matthew sorts out .qmod I'm sure this sort of thing will get polished 
up.

Cheers,
Sabahattin
