I'm not following your reasoning behind repacking another hpk, since our old method just compiled the custom playlist to an internal directory that doesn't actually exist in the original package. this exploits the fact that the engine gives precedence to extracted files over the packed ones, so updates should not be messing with files that are not replacing any part of the game.

if I'm understanding this right the missing audio we are getting probably has to do with the new lua format here, but now my problem is that slserpent's compiler keeps throwing an exception due to the nested brackets. know of any way around this?

I just want to avoid repacking hpks if possible, since this adds a manual step to the compilation. not sure if you're skipping the step of compiling this lua here, or does the script actually run without first compiling? if so this might be the only way to get it working properly, unless the compiler gets updated.
