‎With linux, use approved cards. It isn't like the manufacturers embrace Linux. The programmers/maintainers work with what they are given.

From the Arch Linux wiki (as an example)

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