APU2 card reader needs sdhci driver. The kernel 3.16.7-ckt9-voyage shipped with voyage-0.10.0 is missing it.

You can install voyage on another machine, upgrade kernel and then boot on APU2. Or you can build your own voyage if you are familiar with debian-live build system.

The driver is located here:

/lib/modules/4.1.6-voyage/kernel/drivers/mmc/host/sdhci.ko

Note that alternative voyage kernel 4.1.6-voyage have issues with SD card too: it freezes sometimes on "rcu_sched self-detected stall on CPU" or similar (see also http://www.pcengines.info/forums/?page=post&id=2A1E7FA1-33EF-4923-ABE9-0F18A5D2B2B0&fid=DF5ACB70-99C4-4C61-AFA6-4C0E0DB05B2A).

I have installed linux-image-4.6.0-0.bpo.1-amd64 from jessie-backports on my apu2c4 today in the morning and I haven't encountered any issues so far:

/lib/modules/4.6.0-0.bpo.1-amd64/kernel/drivers/mmc/host/sdhci.ko
