If the sound card doesn't have USB-IF logos (other than the trident describing the connector), and the "USB" Audiophile doesn't have them, you need to be wary. I used to own a M-audio Quattro, which is listed in the Alsa sound card matrix, but it really doesn't work properly. The sound card isn't USB audio compliant, M-audio knows it and will not do anything about it and they don't have to as they don't use the USB-IF logos which would make them responsible for being compliant. I'm not saying that this particular card won't work. I'm just saying that you shouldn't trust specs telling you "native USB compatibility". -- Sampo Savolainen <v2@xxxxxx>
