Esoteric P05/D05/G0-RB

When connected to each other, both transport and DAC indicate that the external clock is locked and operational.
When I switch off the transport, DAC still locks on the external clock.
When I connect my DVD transport (Theta Carmen 2) via XLR to XLR in 1 on DAC, the DAC does not lock on the external clock. I have tried many settings since I think that this is probably a settings problem, but have not succeeded in having the external clock lock on the DAC in this configuration.
From the manuals, I believe that this should be possible. What am I doing wrong? Perhaps I should use the universal out to the D05 when using the DVD transport? Perhaps other settings need to be made?

Just a shot in the dark here, babybear has owned the better esoteric gear (i used to have a dv50s i wish i would have kept for dvd use...)

If your theta dvd transport is dvd only, are you setting your clock to 48 vs 44.1?

When i do this on my dcs scarlatti, the dac will lock to clock on video sources like directv...seem to have a more focused sound, better detail...again, just a thought....
