Hello, you can use these two links to build your Debian rootfs. I didn't try the audio output so I can't help you with second question.

This link will help you create Debian rootfs using debootstrap. It is pretty straightforward so you shouldn't have any problem to achieve that.

This link will help you dealing with kernel issue causing segmentation fault after reboot. This require recompiling kernel which is described in RiotBoard manual.
Reboot of the Linux OS run into segmentation fault

Hope it will help
