no. word clock sync works fine here.

i have never seen any docs on whether the hammerfall self-terminates.
it would be good to know.
you should be preferably be using cables made for word clock such as
those by apogee, but since these cost 5 times more than a standard
75ohm coaxial video cable, its understandable if you didn't. in the
studio, we have both kinds of cables, and actually, its the apogee one
that was bad.

1) time code has *nothing* do to with word clock. they are totally
independent of each in every way.
2) the hammerfall has read-only sync-status controls. ardour/gtk uses
them to display sync status in its GUI. the driver doesn't
want the responsibility of polling their condition - thats
the job of an application. take a look at the code in
audioengine/hammerfall.cc to see how this is done.
