Yes i agree distro does not matter too much, i use redhat as that was 
what a friend who taught me was using but i have heard good things about
debian and Suse
 fo running audio i do recommend intsalling ALSA for your soundcard. and 
go to
http://www.linux-sound.org/

for the smorgasbord of applications to run.

cheers~
