Whilst this is an old topic, I'm replying in the hope that future searches prove fruitful.

I have had success syncing the A and Y axis by using the attached diagram.
Note that the Orange and Red wires for A axis are joined to the Y axis in a 'piggy back' fashion rather than running a slave.
I suspect this will work regardless of the driver board you're using.
