I've used mine (however, not af2, but the previous version, "af") as a
slave activated by the built-in flash without any problem.

Obviously, you are missing your flash working as a slave.
:-)


On a serious note, - I have only one thought: what do you have it
activated by? TTL flash or PTTL one?
I don't know how it is done, but it is designed not to go off with the
PTTL's pre-flash. I wonder if your problem may somehow be related to
this, e.g. if your "main" unit doesn't do the preflash.
And, I assume you've made sure it sees the "master's" flash very well.

Rather than that, - your flash might just have rebelled against slavery.
(Especially after your calling it "a dumb".)

Cheers,

Igor
