Have you considered externel USB from Crative / SoundBlaster? I have
one (USB Creative SoundBlaster Live 24-bit SB0490 using snd_uaudio
module) attached to my loudspeakers over USB 3.0 hub (Unitek Y-3184
with external power supply, power on/off switch and led indicator for
each of the active 7 ports), when I work on a desk with my laptop I
just connect the hub and all works fine. You can get second hand for
$30 it has three mini-jack plugs for speakers, mini-jack for line-in,
spdif-out at the back panel, as well as optical-out and mini-jack for
mic-in and phones on the front panel what is more than enough for me
:-)
