Good question. I'm not familiar with the SBLive!, but I 
assumed (perhaps wrongly) that it had at least an S/PDIF output that
could be linked to the Delta's S/PDIF input.

jackd can actually run for a surprising length of time with unsynced
cards without alsa_pcm xrun messages (unlike jackdmp which produces a
slew of read errors), but I wouldn't expect to get a usable recording.
