I just bought this soundcard but didn't realise there was no support for
Linux. I'm running Ubuntu Studio 13.10, is there a way of configuring it to work?
Perhaps this thread may help you: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2117772. The configuration depends on what you are using: ALSA or pulseaudio.
For general purpose, pulseaudio is fine. But if you want to get optimal sound quality without resampling, ALSA is better. If you are looking for bit perfect sound, the following thread is very helpful: http://www.head-fi.org/t/561961/bit-perfect-audio-from-linux.
