The psudonatural energy resistances should be more random IMHO.

I can understand that, but I wouldn't expect it from CA. WotC has an anti-randomness design philosophy, with good reason methinks, but it would make a nice house rule.

More things need sonic resist IMHO. 3.0 left a huge hole in the system in that regard, and then aggrivated that wound with the energy substitution feat allowing for sonicballs and bolts.

If wotc does not consider all forms of energy equal in 3.5, the energy substitution should not be in CA.

Sure, although note that the revsed version of Energy Sub in the Minis HB (called something else) didn't list sonic as a type, and that sonics can be shut down by silence.

There have been lots of threads on this lately but I agree, sonic either needs to e brought in line with the other energy types or be taken out oft he energy types altogether.
