Even better! Oly put some good features into the C5050/5060/8080
cameras.

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 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.
