Unfortunately, the TSR which provides SB emulation operates via a call to EMM386. 
DOOM has its own memory management which overrides EMM386 so the TSR has no effect.
The music still works because it treats the card as an AdLib compatible.
All we can do is wait and hope that a new driver is written specifically for use with DOOM.
