Steven Walter reported that the problem also exists in the demo version of the games which is aviable at various places. maybe you could debug the problem? http://www.3dgamers.com/dl/games/returnwolfenstein/wolfmpdemo-linux-1.1-mp.x86.run.html its about 66MByets to download and i understand if you don`t have the time to do it - but maybe you can give me some hints to debug the problem.
