Rivendell works with just about anything that's on the Linux HCL. There are a lot of cases where even things that use the same chips as something that's on the HCL will work.
We needed digital audio outputs to our consoles and I found some $30 USB to S/PDIF interfaces on eBay that have been working perfectly here. They look like little aluminum blocks (red, black or gold anodized) 3/4"x3/4"x1-1/2" with a USB-B connector on one end and either an optical or coax connector on the other end. The chip has a real simple job, shuffle bits from the USB to the S/PDIF. It doesn't have any analog parts or D-A converters so a more expensive device isn't necessarily better. The trick is that it's not listed on the HCL but uses the same chip as something that is.
