Ubuntu played music from most of the systems in my case.
Gotta give Ubuntu a whirl sometime soon. (Tried RH8, FC4, Debian, DamnSmallLinux, Icepack, Caldera,..) guess it's a long checklist.
Sound on Linux works great on FC4, and I assume on most other distros. I've got audio, midi, mp3, ogg and u_name_it working.
Some links to whet your appetite:
http://www.alsa-project.org http://agnula.org http://amarok.sourceforge.net http://jackit.sourceforge.net http://ccrma.stanford.edu/planetccrma/software/packages.html
Especially check out the AGNULA project and the Planet CCRMA projects as they make available a low latency kernel for sound processing.
