The silence detector should be triggered rarely. Though experience tells me that isn't always the case (e.g. gaps where split audio should have fired during network programs, presenters going off to make tea and not hitting the sequence/auto button at 4am).
The catch with your suggestion is that you need a complete standalone copy of Rivendell running. That's audio library, database, etc. that all need to be separately maintained. It's much easier to have a CD or MP3 player kick into life. Especially on a windy hilltop when your TX link goes down.
