RDS (Radio Data System) has nothing to do with audio, but can be used f.e. with the rds daemon: http://rdsd.berlios.de/

The device has an USB audio endpoint, which gives you an additional alsa sound device.
You must forward the output from this device to your sound card. That's what I use for it:

arecord -D hw:1,0 -r96000 -c2 -f S16_LE | artsdsp aplay -B -

That's because the device has 96k samples/second with 16 bits/sample and 2 channels.

Bye,
  Toby
