I've got a new 2009 Mac Mini. Is it possible under Unbuntu to push audio out the mini displayport and convert the whole mess to HDMI?

I suspect that you're asking above and beyond just using the dvi-hdmi adapter. I don't think there's a way. You'd essentially need an adapter that mates both your mini-dvi and headphone jack to hdmi, and such an animal doesn't exist.
If you're talking about rerouting sound internally to somehow come out of the mini-dvi port without intefering with video, then it still doesn't look promising. If I'm wrong I'd sure love to know.

Yeah, HDMI is even flaky to begin with (in my experience). I've pretty much reconciled myself to waiting for a laptop where HDMI-out is a default port.
