The RME cards should work with Linux. I've used both PCI and PCIe HDSP
(36 channel I/O) and have never had any issues getting all of the
channels to work, although rarely use them all at once (usually just
the ADAT, which has 8 channels). The routing in the HDSP mixing app is
complicated, no question about that, if you don't you have your inputs
routed to the right outputs, you will get silence.
