There are remote flashes that are triggered by infrared.

Here's a quote I found on the web:

"Because the Nikon/Canon flashes are communicating with infrared light, (as opposed to radio signals) you will need to have your remote flashes in line-of-sight of the controller flash."


It's looking more and more like it's a glitch in the timing system, but as long as they have the photographers to blame, there's no need to fix it.

I think you photographers need to get together with Jeff, or whoever's in charge of the timing system, and do some testing and see if you can make it happen. If it is the flash, you should just be able to fire the flash right up next to the hole in the box and it should trigger the sensor.

If you guys are able to do some testing I hope you will share the results here.
