Has anyone had the issue, when they own mac hardware, that when they install sound drivers it causes kernel instability, until you upgrade the kernel beyond the LTS recommended, then when installing VBox, due to OS instability with the headers, you need to downgrade the kernel to LTS, causing sound driver instability?

No. I've installed all kinds of distributions on computers and giving them away and never seen that problem. I've never had to install sound drivers this decade.
