I have M-Audio cards in 4 machines and a permanent search on ebay and
the local trademe site.
Thousands of these cards were sold to home recording enthusiasts who
have moved on for various reasons, and they generally don't get a lot of
attention so prices are low.
They work with alsa, record and play, but you do have to remember to set
44100 because they default to 48,000.
M-Audio 2496 has RCA In and Out and needs an external boost by about
20DB and they work in high RF locations [ 3 AM Tx]
The 44 have balanced out but still need 20db to follow.
Well worth the effort.

WOW, I have NOT been paying attention.
The MAudio recommendations are great, but are they even in production
anymore? kind of scarce.
It doing some "catch up" web research, did the sound card market just
up and die? There isn't much available like there used to be.
I'm not *opposed* to USB solutions, but have been bit in the past with
24/7/365 operation reliability issues of USB devices, but maybe that
is a thing of the past...
It seems to me there is a hole in the market for something more
flexible than on-board, yet not as expensive as ASI. M-Audio was the
perfect fit for this market, but do they even make anything besides
headphones now-a-days?
