I got this and it solved my audio problem in Linux computer. I had the classic "Dummy Output" Problem with the Onboard Audio section not being detected.
I ran all the alsa and pulseaudio rituals. I got some luck, after updates audio was gone again. This device solves the problem. I suggest all linux users who have the "Dummy Audio Syndrome" to just use this device called USB Sound Card or USB Sound Adapter.In the 386 days, it was a "SoundBlaster Card" for Music and Mic. Monitors had the "Trident SVGA card" both PC-Cards not integrated on Motherboard to get Audio and Video going. Now all things are onboard. In the future all things on one Silicon Chip or maybe One Graphene Slice. It will be called "The Tortilla" - delabs Notes
