For example, you need to use a Wolfson/Cirrus custom version of Raspbian because Wolfson/Cirrus hasn't yet integrated the drivers into the main Raspbian build. "

I've been experimenting with RuneAudio and the Wolfson card. It provides a simple web interface for sending audio output to the Wolfson card (including selecting a custom Linux kernel) and enabling a built-in UPnP renderer. You can also install MinimServer and control it from another computer via MinimWatch. It's very slick and impressive.

As far as I know, it doesn't support audio recording (getting back on topic for this thread).

Warning: don't try to use Kinsky with the built-in UPnP renderer. There's some nasty incompatibility that causes Kinsky to hang. BubbleUPnP is working well.
