The Midiman DiO 2448 seems to be the cheapest sound
card with digital
I/O and I use it with the OSS drivers, paid for, from 4Front
technologies at http://www.opensound.com. The card has analogue output
but no analogue inputs at all.
The Midiman 2496 is more expensive but it may be easier to get drivers
working on it.
Looking at the ALSA soundcard matrix and associated doco, the 2496
doesn't have SPDIF support yet. However the 2448 (CMI8738 chip) seems
to be well supported by the current drivers (0.9.0rc6).
Cheers,
