Thanks, now I can use AUCTeX in doom emacs. Then I experience behavior
similar as you. Now both `TeX-master' and `file-local-variables-alist'
lack local value.

The value of `AUCTeX-version' is "13.0.5.2021-03-25".

This is different for me. I have
:safe
for its value.

This is different as well. I didn't get such message and it evaluated to
nil.

The former is different, too. I have now "../main" as the value of
`TeX-master', while `file-local-variables-alist' still remains nil
without local value.

I began to suppose that some package(s) you and doom are commonly using
is (are) incompatible with AUCTeX with respect to the way to handle file
local variables. However, it's mystery to me which packages, if any,
have such incompatibility...
