What I did was add a debug line to your array build code (shown in red below):

Code:
awk '
    # create an associative array (key/value pairs) based on the file1
    NR==FNR { for(i=2; i<NF; i+=2) {
        a[substr($i,1,7)] = $NF
        print "a[" substr($i,1,7)"] = " $NF
    }
    next } 

    # retrieve the first 7-char of each line in file2 as the key to test against the above hash
    { k = substr($0, 1, 7) }

    # if find k, then print
    k in a { print a[k] "\t" $0 "\t" l }

    # save prev line to 'l' which is the ID
    { l = $0  } 

' RS= file1 RS='\n' file2

From the example files we get an array as such:

Code:
a[Negativ] = R_2019_03_12_13_59_54_user_S5-0000-000-v5.6_Oncomine_Childhood_Cancer_Research_DNA_and_Fusions
a[19-0000] = R_2019_03_12_13_59_54_user_S5-0000-000-v5.6_Oncomine_Childhood_Cancer_Research_DNA_and_Fusions
a[19-0002] = R_2019_03_12_13_59_54_user_S5-0000-000-v5.6_Oncomine_Childhood_Cancer_Research_DNA_and_Fusions
a[19-0003] = R_2019_03_12_13_59_54_user_S5-0000-000-v5.6_Oncomine_Childhood_Cancer_Research_DNA_and_Fusions
a[19-0004] = R_2019_03_12_13_59_54_user_S5-0000-000-v5.6_Oncomine_Childhood_Cancer_Research_DNA_and_Fusions
a[Control] = R_2019_03_12_13_59_54_user_S5-0000-000-v5.6_Oncomine_Childhood_Cancer_Research_DNA_and_Fusions

As no lines in file2 start with Control Negativ 19-0000 thru 19-0004 you get no output.

JOIN(1) 						      General Commands Manual							   JOIN(1)

NAME
join - relational database operator SYNOPSIS
join [ options ] file1 file2 DESCRIPTION
Join forms, on the standard output, a join of the two relations specified by the lines of file1 and file2. If file1 is `-', the standard input is used. File1 and file2 must be sorted in increasing ASCII collating sequence on the fields on which they are to be joined, normally the first in each line. There is one line in the output for each pair of lines in file1 and file2 that have identical join fields. The output line normally con- sists of the common field, then the rest of the line from file1, then the rest of the line from file2. Fields are normally separated by blank, tab or newline. In this case, multiple separators count as one, and leading separators are dis- carded. These options are recognized: -an In addition to the normal output, produce a line for each unpairable line in file n, where n is 1 or 2. -e s Replace empty output fields by string s. -jn m Join on the mth field of file n. If n is missing, use the mth field in each file. -o list Each output line comprises the fields specifed in list, each element of which has the form n.m, where n is a file number and m is a field number. -tc Use character c as a separator (tab character). Every appearance of c in a line is significant. SEE ALSO
sort(1), comm(1), awk(1) BUGS
With default field separation, the collating sequence is that of sort -b; with -t, the sequence is that of a plain sort. The conventions of join, sort, comm, uniq, look and awk(1) are wildly incongruous. JOIN(1)
