Jason, this is not really an answer, but some observations.
I know when I plugged an hdmi cable into the pi, it rerouted audio away 
from analog output to hdmi output.
I've read about redirecting audio output using alsa, but I never got it 
working.  I even found code to detect an audio sound card and reroute 
audio based on its presence or absence.
I will follow your progress with interest.
