Electrical - Tail light bulb out no rapid blinker

Passenger tail light bulb went out who knows when, but was alerted about it today. Every other time this has happened, in multiple vehicles, the turn signal blinks rapidly to let you know the bulb is out. Mine blinked normally.

In the past year I've had to change my multi function switch and more recently the flasher relay for the blinkers. Just a standard relay from the parts store, not the heavy duty one or anything. It did say it was LED compatible, so I wonder if that is why it didn't pick it up?

Anyone else seen this or have any idea of why I didn't get the rapid blinking?

If it's for LEDs, it won't do the quick flash thing.

Thanks. That is what I suspected, but wanted to lay it all out there to be sure. I kinda like the quick flash thing (although changing out that relay isn't fun) I guess I'll be shopping for a new relay.
