Ain't possible, I know.

You can set all 23 GPIO's as output. I actually only use 17 of them (2 x
8bit position and 1 on/off).
Now I've taken a deeper look at the problem, it might be caused by the
EP405 itself. My DAC settles at 70ns.
I still have to check if the signals are outputted all at the same time.
Should go and fetch a logic analyzer somewhere ;)
