Re: Exit button's sound effect cutting out
I believe this is normal. When you play a map, sounds are loaded and cached as needed, so once they're played they can be played again without having to reload them. At the end of each map, all sounds are unloaded to prevent the number of loaded sounds from growing indefinitely and taking up too much memory. To unload sounds, they must be stopped, which includes the sound of the exit switch.
I'm not sure if this could be fixed in a way that wouldn't risk other problems, since there could be mods that expect the exit sound to not play over the intermission screen (e.g. if there's a relatively long custom switch sound, and it's expected the exit switch sound is forced to stop before the intermission music and tally sounds kick in).

BTW, DOS and Chocolate Doom don't have this issue.
