"Well, you'd have to link to a .m3u file that pointed to that
mountpoint,
but yes that all looks good." what would that mean?
http://ip:port/first.m3u ? or something else

Well, you'd have to link to a .m3u file that pointed to that mountpoint, 
but yes that all looks good.

/first.m3u is the reference you put in a web browser so that a playlist
is retrieved and a player is started.  The .m3u link is automatically
handled by icecast provided a stream is present.
