This card works fully. However, it need some setup. It lacks a hardware sound mixer, so a sound mixer has to be provided in software. Until this is done, Appserver and Myth will not start up under LMCE.

S/PDIF is not reliable. At first, there was no S/PDIF output, but, at some point, passthrough started working, but not PCM. On another variation of this card (different subsystem), PCM worked (but not passthrough) after enabling the AC97 loopback (snd-ac97-codec module parameter) and unmuting the ADC/DAC control in alsamixer, but not on this one. When trying to play PCM through S/PDIF, this card clicks once every few seconds (once S/PDIF started to work that is) until the playing is stopped.
