i had a similar problem with an sblive, it started crackling like you
describe each 30 min or so depending on the jack settings. a post to the
jackdevel list revealed that the card was really working at 48kHz all
the time, and resampling in the case of 44, 22 or any other sample rate.
so, does the crackling occur periodically? if so, you might want to try
with 48, 96 or some other sampling rate.

afaik the linux kernel supports any "devicecompliant" usb card, so if
it's not there's a fair chance you'll have problems.
