Audio interfaces still face so many issues on Linux. Part of that might be down to drivers, and that’s on the manufacturers, but often there’s just excessive latency and stuttering.
They’re pretty distro-agnostic, you might have to translate some packages to whatever distro you’re using, but that’s just a quick search. The article in question
