The Midiman DiO 2448 seems to be the cheapest sound card with digital
I/O and I use it with the OSS drivers, paid for, from 4Front
technologies at http://www.opensound.com. The card has analogue output
but no analogue inputs at all.

I have yet to find out whether the ALSA driver works with Debiam 3.0.
I couldn't get it going with Debian 2.2.

The Midiman 2496 is more expensive but it may be easier to get drivers
working on it.
