The CPU used in the TS-431 is not supported in the mainline kernel (or
wasn't like time I checked).
The TS-431+, as you say, uses an Annapurna Labs Alpine chip. They
contributed initial kernel support but then disappeared (maybe because
they were acquired by Amazon, maybe not). Free Electronics submitted
some patches recently, so there might be hope.
I wouldn't recommend any of these two devices right now if you want to
run Debian.
