Most USB1 soundcards also work with Linux using the standard drivers.
Some care has to be taken with M-Audio cards, many of these are not
well supported. But if you go with Edirol or Terratec or so, not much
can go wrong (except trying to use the OSS driver at the same time as
the ALSA driver because usbaudio isn't blacklisted in
/etc/hotplug/blacklist).
No one here can do the market reseach for you, so I'd recommend you
look through some online shops and find devices, whose feature set
matches what you want to have, then come back and ask if someone can
comment on these devices. A good place to share experiences is the USB
devices list at www.qbik.ch/usb/devices/
Do a "Quick search" for "audio".
Ciao
