Well, a USB audio interface hardly qualifies as a sound card, either.
There are quite a few USB and Firewire interfaces that have preamps
with XLR inputs, largely because that's what microphones (in a broadcast
or recording context) use.

Finding such a device that works with Linux could be a challenge though.
I got the impression from a quick look at the M-Audio web site that
most of their USB devices listed on the ALSA matrix have been
discontinued. Is a Firewire device with jackd and libfreebob not
an option?
