modules are way more friendly that manually setting and exporting your environment. the issue here is you are setting your environment in your .bashrc, and that cannot work if your account is used with various MPI implementations. (unless your .bashrc checks a third party variable to select the appropriate mpi, in this case, simply extend the logic to select openmpi)
if you configure'd with --enable-mpirun-prefix-by-default, you should not need anything in your environment.
