Getting new carpet, the gap is 2cm lower than boards will underlay and carpet leave a even finish.?
Cut a piece of 18mm plywood to suit and lay on top of the hearth. I would not rely on the underlay to cover up the differences in level.

If its a fitted carpet I would have thought the Gripper rod would make up the difference
You just need the cement base covered, mention it to the Carpet Fitter, if he is reliable I would have thought he has come across this problem on many occasions.

Floor leveler then carpet as normal, hardboard over entire floor prevents floor board showing.
