So the redirect_url parameter gets emptied (which explains why the
redirect doesn't work).

I think I once had a similar problem on a site using these extensions.
Could you try whether the following helps, testing after each step:

1. Remove the following line from your sr_feuser_register HTML template
(if you are using the original template, make a copy and point the
extension to it so your changed won't be overwritten on an upgrade):

<input type="hidden" name="redirect_url" value="" />

2. Create an extension template on the page subtree that contains the
login and add the following TS setup code:

config.linkVars = redirect_url


Another approach: If you would like the users to self-register quickly
for events without creating full FE user accounts with user name and
password, you can also use the "onetimeaccount" extension which was
designed for exactly that task.
