Recommended USB cards for Qubes?

I can vouch for the Sonnet Allegro Type A USB 3.2 4-Port
Part # USB3-4PM-E

I have two and both appear to handle strict reset properly. Working peripherals include USB Audio, Video, DVD, USBHDD etc. I have not used Nitro/Yubi keys with them but would expect them to just work once everything else was configured correctly.

I had originally hoped to get one “Pro version” USB3-PRO-4PM-E (which had four Fresco Logic FL1100EX controllers) but couldn’t find any to purchase. Ended up settling on two USB3-4PM-E

When I was looking into this I found the POWER9 Hardware Compatibility List - USB Host Controllers section informative, particularly the working chipsets.
