If you can find Kworld PCI 110 or 115 cheap, they work well, with QAM and
all.  I've got two 115's ($25 each AR) and one 110 ($40 off Ebay) in my
server.  Only issue is that they are a framegrabber for SD and they are
limited to 32khz for SD capture (meaning if you're sending the sound via
spdif, you might need to resample it -- no biggie, just an alsa config).
