How does it work with Linux? That's why I gotta ask if any one has tried this Sewell USB SoundBox 7.1 USB Sound Card SW-29545 on Linux?

It should treat the box as an external sound card. In this case, it should work. Linux has OOB drivers, unlike Windows and the need to download and install drivers. This being said, it should work with Linux.

Did you ever find out if this was compatible with Linux? I see the v1 is listed, but can't find anything on the v2.

Idk my understanding is that these Bluetooth connectors are Win 95 compliant only! As run Ubuntu and Linux Mint I can tell you it's sees it, but I've never been able to make them work or connect under those OS either.I bought 2 others from Belkin. Bit the bullet and paid $19.99 for each of them at a tiger direct store down the street. Both work under Win 7 and all Linux OS I use.Best regards

Yeah. In fact the support team it's pretty nice. Here is the link to the driver http://www.presonus.com/products/AudioBox-USB/downloads But you must be very careful and follow the instructions before doing anything.

I believe so. I use Linux, I had to select this device as output. Go to your sound configurations and do the same, it should work.

I plugged mine into a Linux Ubuntu Minimal install and it worked without issues. No software install required, no special drivers. It just works.

I hope a more informed person will post to enlighten us, but I believe this bypasses your sound card/built in audio codec. I think that is the same for any USB headset.You would need to plug a headset directly via mini jacks in the sound card to use that. I guess where I am lacking clarity is that I believe there is no special speaker hardware for headsets to do "positional" surround. I think it is all simulated- either in the chip in the USB dongle or in your PCI sound card.

Try this link for a download location and how to install the drivers. The sound card uses the Realtek engine so they should work.http://community.linuxmint.com/tutorial/view/1236

Yes, I have tried with Ubuntu Desktop 14.0. It found the USB audio device by itself. Michael

I have this system and am able to play 24-bit/192KHz flac files through the USB interface just fine (running on linux). I suppose it's possible the software or hardware is downgrading them first but I would have expected no sound at all if the unit really didn't support it.

I had problems with the one I purchased, then found out that there is no product support at Numark for this unit. I sent mine back. If you can determine the bit rate of your onboard sound device, and it's 24bit, you won't find anything better under $300. I have a Soundblaster Xfi HD model SB1240 external USB sound card for my laptop (which has a 16bit sound device) and am very happy with it.

I have not used it with Linux. I have used it with Win7 and Win Server 2008. It uses "Realtek" technology, if that helps. It should work with Linux.

It works great with Suse and Open Suse Linux with no problems using standard drivers installed with linux -- I don't use the Setpoint, so I can't speak to that issue

Linux operating system drivers will be needed and if you don't have them see http://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php/448607-Driver-for-Creative-Labs-Sound-Blaster-X-Fi-Xtreme-Audio-(PCIe) for more information.

No idea, but after my third unit died (after just a couple months) I looked for another USB audio interface solution. This unit was discontinued a while back, every unit I had failed in the same way. I really loved this unit when it was working, but I lost confidence that its a good thing to own.

Will this work if my current laptop sound card no longer works? - Yes, but you have to plug in separate speakers. It won't be able to run your laptop speakers unless you hack the laptop I think.In other words, does it rely on the current audio card, or is it independent? - It's independent.
