Don't know if you are setting up for RTTY decode only or AFSK & decode or SSB....?

I use FSK for TX, so I just added an external USB audio box so I could have another MMTY decoder for the 2nd rig without doing the more complex L/R input thing.  

Quick setup with no extra drivers, & cheap (~$39).  Mine is an off-brand, and I don't think it scored that well on the soundboard check, but since i'm only using it to RX it doesn't really matter.  My guess is that it doesn't do full duplex.

Here's an example:
