One more question that comes up:
Would someone have a distro to recommend? Compact and already tuned for
audio/low-latency applications? I've started with SuSE, but I could use
something more light weight...
Thanks for all the help!

I think you are looking for Planet CCRMA :
http://ccrma.stanford.edu/planetccrma/software/
->Abstract:
Planet CCRMA (CCRMA is pronounced ``karma'') at Home is a collection of
rpms (RPM stands for RedHat Package Manager) that you can add to a
computer running RedHat 7.3, 8.0, 9 or Fedora Core 1 to transform it
into an audio workstation with a low-latency kernel, current ALSA audio
drivers and a nice set of music, midi, audio and video applications.
Have a lot of fun
