I use rsync for this purpose and the only notable bottleneck is my download speed, fwiw.

Maybe you can do something with the tampermonkey extension to catch when that audio is triggered and have it do an api call that your script catches?
I don’t know if that’ll actually work, I know of the extension but have never it used nor am I skilled with Javascript but it seems feasible.
Maybe conky but probably not?
Conky can be used to display text on your desktop, including grabbing stdout from a program. I’m not familiar with calcurse but if it can dump text output of what you want, that could work.
The big caveat is that conky doesn’t work with wayland. It’s a work in progress (according to the arch wiki, anyway).
Some ideas:
Are you using proprietary nvidia drivers? Display issues after switching kernels could be driver related. If so, switch to nouveau and see what happens.
See if the issues persists with another display manager, such as sddm.
My suggestion just changes your threat model, so may not be a good one based on your wants.
Perhaps consolidate systems? Managing less devices = less points of failure. But adds the risk of any given failure being more severe.
A quick search tells me that mac mini’s have ethernet. Are you able temporarily connect that way to fetch the wifi drivers?
This sums it up. I’m too lazy and there’s too little incentive.
