I the TigerJet phone does emulate a soundcard.  I use it with iaxComm.

Steve Sokol's IAX Phone supports the Eutectics handset.

I have used the S100U with iaxcomm, as well.

I am working on off hook detection and handset ringing for the TigerJet handset,
but for now it works great as a soundcard/headset substitute.
