I think you meant input didn't you? Anyway a card that has digitial input and output, but does not handle MP3/ogg on board (why not use the attached computer to decode those) is the M-Audio Transit. It is very simply, but has both digital input and output. HOwever its support in Linux is still a bit ropey-- it now works (as of last night-- I have been trying to debug the thing) but via a bit of kludge.
