yes i think that works pretty good (drawing from earlier experiments).
Using S/PDIF just for sync is a cheap alternative to a "real" wordclock.
One of both interfaces will be slaved to the other and then both should
run the same cycle at the same time (so theoretically no phasing issues).
You just have to manage to shove forth and back the sample data from/to
interface at good enough rate which isn't a particular problem on
localhost using UDP like zita does. If there is no resampling involved,
this can work for many many channels without hitting the CPU too much.

Could this be used without word clock, by using a digital interface to
sync, e.g. S/PDIF? If so, assuming two identical cards would be used, would
sync be hat good, that each combination of IOs, e.g. a channel from one
card for the left and of the other card for the right channel of a stereo
signal, wouldn't cause phasing issues?
With the official zita-ajbridge you can disable
resampling.
Good to know.
