I am not a dev and don't know ubuntu or any distro really.

You would need to be building your own kernels and so have the kernel source
tree to find hdmi.c.

One thing that puzzles me is the use of grub command line to pass module
parameters - I thought that would be if radeon was built into kernel, but as
you show you are using a module.

If you search for how to set module parameters in ubuntu you may have more luck
- it will involve putting 

option radeon audio=1 

somewhere and regenerating something ...
