It was never thought that these "golf balls:" were related to cardiac pathology. When they were first detected, which was related to the increasing descrimination and quality of the ultra sound technology, the first studies raised the possibility that the finding might be related to an increased incidence of chromosomal abnormalities. Today the obstetricians are backtracking on that and it is not felt today to be an independent marker of increased risk. Together with other findings there are those that feel it might combine to increase the risk but the evidence is sparse.

To make a long story short, although the echogenic foci are found in the heart, they are not related to cardiac problems and as such your question should be directed to Geneticists- Obstetricians.
