Audio, bluetooth, and other I/O is often implemented using USB devices, so
it should not be surprising to find a USB controller. You should be able
to find
the USB id's. According to ASUS (
https://www.asus.com/Sound-Cards/Xonar-SE/specifications/),
the card uses a "C-Media USB2.0 6620A High-Definition Sound Processor (Max.
192KHz/24bit)".
https://www.audioshark.org/ might be able to help -- there are linux users
doing
serious audio work.
