Thanks, this indeed sounds like a promising way to go.
One more thought - instead of running openelec from a USB stick with related lag or fiddlign with a dual-boot, any thoughts about running openelec in a VM? Any experience with a Mini doing this?

Ok, I will go ahead this weekend to install openelec on my Macmini and actually fully remove Mac OSX. This should bring an end to my audio issues. I have three last questions:
1) I keep reading online that I will need to install something called "refit". Is that also needed if I completely get rid of Mac OSX or only for dual-boot?
2) Do I need to do anything to have my MacMini boot from USB or will it "just happen"?
3) Any idea whether the 64bit version of openelec will work on a late-2006 Mini (which I will try it first on before going for my 2011 model)?

You should head over to the openelec forum with your questions imo.
