Have you tried putting the camera mode dial to X?

X on my K20 defaults to 1/180th and f8 (with the f8 being variable while the shutter speed is fixed. Switch to M and tth flash will not fire.

I often knock the camera off 1/160s and that causes the flash to not trigger.

Thanks,I think also having thought about it,keeping the camera square to the plane of falling droplets is crucial.
