Ubuntu MATE would be the only Ubuntu distro I look at currently for this kind of thing. It isn't having a massive UX flux and we know the sound at least mostly works with it simply enough (I'm glaring at KDE here in condescension.) If MATE runs into problems, then going pure Debian is the best fallback.
Moving `/tmp` to tmpfs is a bit premature IMO. It isn't like the SSD is going to be worn out any time soon with their workloads. +1 to single partition on the root drive, that's all I do.
On my `/home` SSD I still have a small 4 or 8 GB swap partition *just in case*. So that may be something to have on that as well. Even though it should never get touched much, worth having as a fail-safe in case crazy memory starts getting used. Until another stick of RAM can be put in to resolve the problem.
