You're not alone - I have the same set up as you and have experienced the
same problem, however I was getting the sticky sound syndrome with Quake II
as well, so I suspect it had less to do with A3D support, and more to do
with the Montego II Drivers I got from Dell. Have you tried updating them?
You can get the latest update from Dell's driver page
(www.dell.com/support/), although I'll warn you now that it took me about
one and a half hours to dl ;)
On the other hand, I still can't get Half Life to recognise that I have A3D,
and have tried all the new drivers, etc...
By the way, watch out how you refer to your STB - it's not actually the
Velocity 4400 (it's lacking TV Out, etc...) and if you install the 4400
drivers from STB's web site none of your 3d accelerated games will work, and
you'll still get sticky sound syndrome ;)
Hope some of this is useful to you, but if you get the probs fixed b4 me, do
be sure to drop us a line,
    Cheers,
        Krogg.
