I think ursaw above answered the question.
If DRLs are disabled (i.e. the Xenons are not on) then the halogens are only used to flash since the Xenons would take too long to activate.
If you have the DRLs on (i.e. xenons on all the time) then the halogens are not used (even when flashing, as you observed the xenons hood raise giving high beam action).
