You don't need direct access to the connector - and actually, having
direct access to the connector is potentially racy.  So no.

Different parts of DRM don't help you with this: whether it's a connector,
encoder or bridge, you still need some way to get information in and out
from the HDMI video component to both HDMI audio and HDMI CEC components.

Please start seeing that the problem you have in front of you covers more
than _just_ audio.  If you design it just for audio, then we'll probably
have to redesign it when addressing CEC support.
