IIRC some packages, perhaps linuxsampler too, were installed to /opt

Nope, no drawbacks at all - you will get more
up-to-date audio
packages, and probably *more* audio packages too. I enable the KX
repos on all of my Debian/Ubuntu installs.
Including some packages like Linux Sampler that will never get to
debian so far as I can tell.
