You just had to look in the manual under troubleshooting "flash does not fire". The answer is there.

True, it is available under the Troubleshooting section "some flash modes are not available" with solution to disable silent mode. And even when not in silent mode it is not available in burst mode which is not covered in manual under the flash table on restrictions of camera settings (pg. 131)...

All said, I didn't have the manual with me on our trip and even the manual is not clear on it. I think it should be easier to enable and clarified better in the manual...
