No
5) Does voice normally work for you? If not, or you do not have a mic, have you remembered to set up any applicable options in your operating system and/or the game? *
No, I havent tried a mic. I use 64 bit Vista with onboard sound

Re: HLDJ doesnt play music
Some of the output seems to suggest this may be a GoldSrc game, if so make sure you are loading the GoldSrc sample wavs (sample.wav, etc) and also double check your game paths in Setup.
If you are using an older version of HLDJ, update to 1.6.0a10. Or if you are using this, you may also try a7 (though the results should not differ).
Unless something is missing from the output above, it's odd that it jumped past 'c' from generating hldj_cmd_b.cfg to hldj_cmd_d.cfg. If you define your own aliases, check that they do not conflict with HLDJ's. Also check that before starting a game, there are no previous instances of "hldj_*.cfg" files in existence in the game directory or in the game's "cfg" directory.
Another oddity is that hldj_next should not load "(none)" if an audio file is present. Try loading other directories you see in the audio list, does it update itself to display their contents?
After loading a sample file, post a screenshot of your game directory if it is a GoldSrc game, or one level up from this (two levels up from the "cfg" folder) if it is a Source game.
Finally, although it's not the immediate problem, also read the sticky (diagnostic #5) as to how to properly configure your audio input options.
