I believe I had a copy of "The Book of Linux Music & Sound" by Dave Phillips [1] back in the day, and seem to recall it was a good introduction at the time. It looks like the author has a related web site [2]. Other options include installing "Planet CCRMA at home" [3] and/or getting involved in that community.
