The Opus card runs on a different port address than the other Soundscapes if I remember right. Sometimes you need to edit a game cfg to get it set to the right address. It's a little compatibility quirk.

I like that it still has the Motorola CPU. Don't need EMM386 with the card right?

As for games with native Soundscape compatibility, it started to show up in early 1994. Offhand I recall that LucasArts and games that use HMI sound middleware support it. But you can always choose General MIDI for music. I ran it alongside a SBPro for best game compatibility.
