synchronize AI and AO on single PCI-4461

I am trying to adapt the NI-DAQmx multi-device synchronization example.  The secret seems to lie in the name of the Trigger Source.  I am trying to use /Dev2/ao/StartTrigger as the Digital Edge Start Trigger Source for an Analog Input task.  What am I doing wrong?  Where can I find more detailed documentation about this issue?

I solved the problem by swapping master with slave.  That is, I am now using using /Dev2/ai/StartTrigger as the Digital Edge Start Trigger Source for the Analog Output task, instead of the other way around.  This solution is fine.
