[Alsa-user] External firewire/usb soundcard that works well with alsa ?

2007-01-18 Thread Dobes Vandermeer
Since I'm having so much trouble getting alsa to work with hda-intel, I'm considering trying an external option. However, I'd rather not buy one just to discover that it doesn't work with alsa, either. All I'm going to do is connect it to my receiver using an optical connector, so it doesn't need
