No, it is a mode I turned off. Actually it has a slave mode where it only fires
a low power pulse to trigger a slave flash.

Slave triggers with external flash units work well as long as the
camera's built-in flash is not using a pre-flash for red eye reduction

used to sell a flash bracket with a built-in slave trigger to use with
their line of 35mm point and shoot cameras which did not have hot shoe
or PC flash connection.
Sounds like the Oly 5050 does not use a preflash, or at least it's a
mode you haven't turned on yet.
