I am wondering what the best/recommended practice is for configuring the Hibernate dialect.

Should you configure the dialect directly yourself, or is it best to rely on DialectFactory.determineDialect?

I like the idea of having the dialect autodetected (allows you to use a single build against multiple different environments), but I'm wondering how reliable it is.

The dialect detection is the best mechanism IMO. Of course that means you must have a connection available. Usually that is the case obviously, though there are cases (tools mostly) where that is not true.

I should mention that you can register overrides and new mappings as well if you ever need to:
