Setting up a MuseScore dev environment should be pretty easy in any modern
linux distribution.
Mint (http://www.linuxmint.com/) seems to have quite some leverage in the
past years.

More than a distribution, you want to choose a desktop environment (KDE,
Gnome, Unity, Cinnamon...)
The "new Gnome desktop" Michael is talking about, is not Gnome but Unity.

Ubuntu Studio is the audio optimized version of Ubuntu. The main difference
is the real time kernel I believe. It's probably the most used audio
optimized linux distrib. There are other audio specific distrib like Tango
Studio.

FWIW, Werner is running the last Kubuntu 13.10 (correct me if I'm wrong).
Travis, our CI system, is running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Server Edition 64 bit.
