I have a SoundBlaster Audigy2 NX. It works under Linux and as I remember (I haven't used it for a bit) there is a problem with 44.1 KHz sample rates although it worked fine for other sample rates with ALSA. It does work under windows but requires the creative labs drivers (Windows may include them now, I don't know, windows certainly needed creative's drivers when I bought it). Also as a note (remembering your other recent question) the audigy2 NX needs a power connection. I don't know whether the audigy2 NX is what you need, its the only USB audio device I personally have had experience with, may be those two references will help you choose something suitable.
