No experience writing drivers, no ;)
(I think it'd be fun to learn, at least on Linux, so I don't count it as a bottleneck).Also, for Ethernet boards, I think the DAC will act like a TCP server, receiving audio data as a simple TCP stream. These boards have HTTP servers in the firmware (uclinux rules) so the controls (volume, sample rate etc) could be simple HTTP requests.
In this case, the first version of the "driver" can be a simple userspace application, talking to the DAC via ethernet / TCP/IP and offering some Jack ports to the audio player. Hell, it could even be written in Python. No need to hack the kernel, and you get full debugger support with no hassle. And you can test your DAC with a web browser (upload a WAV file... lol.)
