It's my understanding that the 44 doesn't support sync, that you've
gotta go to the 66 or higher to get them in sync.

Even if there's no wordclock on the 66+ cards, you can still hit the
control in envy24control to force time sync to SPDIF in, and then hook
the cards up via SPDIF.  But since the 44 has no SPDIF, I'm SOL on
that front.
