Subject: [Leica] OT question: can't fire flash on Fuji X-E1 when using LM 3rd party adapter

I am using a 35mm voigtlander lens on a Fuji X-E1 and I cannot get the fash 
to work. In the menu the flash option is grayed out and I cannot select the 
option to force fire the flash. I am using a third party adapter. Has anyone 
managed to get the flash to work with third party LM adapters? I can't get a 
hot shoe mounted flash to fire either. Please don't suggest I read the 
manual.. it has nothing useful to help solve this problem!
?
Thanks in advance for anyhelp from the Leica lenses on X-E1 or X-Pro1 
crowd.. you know who you are :-)
?
Amities
