I don't think making the damage type random is worth any adjustment at all, as long as sonic is left out of the lineup. Either the damage type doesn't matter, or you're giving up the certainty of getting maximum effect against foes with known vulnerabilities in exchange for having a chance of it working well against anything.
That's exactly what I'm looking for. And I prefer the 1d4 idea:
1 - Fire
2 - Electricity
3 - Cold
4 - Acid

But a 1d6 with perhaps a two-effect on a 6 would be interesting, although that'd push a level 5 spell by a bit.
