"PulseAudio <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PulseAudio> serves as a proxy to
sound applications using existing kernel sound components like ALSA
<https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/ALSA> or OSS

Must your DAC be portable? USB or something else (internal maybe)? High
sample rates? Record or just playback? Record multichannel? Etc.
