usually when you have one bulb out though, it flashes faster.

In a electro-mechanical one (the kind that use a bi-metalic strip, you are right.  in the all electric (uses and IC chip for the clock signal), it will do weird things like not flash.  I had that probalem when one of my front turn signals came unplugged.
