Doppler has always been a problem since most implementations of OpenAL are bad. Creative based implementations (like OpenAL-Soft) are the worst. The previous implementation tried to prevent this by trying to generate the Doppler effect ourselves but with little luck in most cases. I've added a few exceptions in the current implementation trying to get it right this time but I might need to rethink the way it is handled since the list of exceptions tend to grow.
