[Alsa-user] Sound cards that can hold their sampling clock well?

[Dave]

I have issues with some software I use with my onboard sound card get 
errors like "fixing audio drift by..." and "xrun" errors caused by the 
sound card sampling clock being not kept properly?  I use only SPDIF out 
both in PCM and Dolby digital out, and when these "xrun" errors occur 
the (particularly) dolby digital bitstream feed to an external decoder 
cuts out, and am really having a hard time determing if its because its 
just a cheapy onboard sound card or if its software related.  Am 
wondering if a higher quality sound card would fix this problem.  I was 
eyeing the sould blaster audigy2 card, but also read the spdif output is 
currently broken with these cards.  Can anyone recommend solutions to my 
problem?
