Hmm, you're the second person recently to recommend that to me - what does it 
do? I think the problems with this 'card' are the ALSA drivers aren't very 
complete, so if it uses them, it probably wouldn't get too much further.

That said, I was playing with it this evening, and it worked fine for what I 
need (with mixxx - having one stereo output for the PA, one for headphones, 
and being able to control what goes through each).

For better or for worse, I seem to have committed to DJing at a friends party 
next weekend, which will involve using this. I'm sure they'll all love my 
taste in music :)
