Or switch away from Debian?

Debian's policy is the "problem" - it's a laudable policy and I'm really 
not going to criticise it, and I admire anyone with the principles to 
stick with it. But if you're looking to pull the soundfusion code into 
your install you've already decided to be more pragmatic in which case 
using a more pragmatic distro would be easier.

Going back to Xubuntu would be my recommendation if you want things to 
"work". Building a kernel isn't too painful and is probably something 
you should persevere with as a learning exercise (sorry I can't really 
help you, it's been a long time since I did it). But after you're done 
and proved you can do it (or not!) re-install Xubuntu.

Or look at Gentoo (or one of its derivatives) if you want to get into 
custom builds.
