SPI Clock via DMA

I'm using a DMA for the first time (on a STM32F427), and am having a bit of trouble: I don't see SCK on any of my four SPIs when trying to transfer data via the DMA (specifically, I've only tried on the Tx side so far). I tested the SPIs separately, by simply doing a while loop while constantly calling SPI_I2S_SendData(SPI1, 0x77), and it works fine: I see SCK, and data on the MOSI. But when I try to use the DMA, I see no pulses on SCK or data being moved. What's strange is that the ''transfer complete'' ISRs I have enabled are triggering. 

Long story short: should I not expect to see SCK when transferring data from memory to the SPI via DMA?

Sorry for not posting my code; I left my laptop at work. I can post that tomorrow morning if necessary.

Thanks!

#define SPI2_SCK_PIN                   GPIO_Pin_3

#define SPI2_SCK_SOURCE                GPIO_PinSource3

#define SPI2_SCK_GPIO_PORT             GPIOD

#define SPI2_SCK_GPIO_CLK              RCC_AHB1Periph_GPIOD

Understand you can't just make this stuff up, the connectivity has to be defined in the silicon. PD3 is NOT an SPI2_SCK exit point.

Point taken, the F429 has additional routing, but still appears to function, clock is demonstrable on PD3
