getting started with linux

Hi,
Just a couple more questions:
How do I setup the soundcard so I here sound through it once I have 
installed linux?
Also will I have to download a linux distribution and install that. Then 
install speakup? When speakup is working can I get it to talk through my 
speakers? If so what synth would it use. Like jaws can talk through my 
speakers can speakup do this or do I need a hardware synth?

Thanks.
