Yes, they should flash.
There were different configurations though: on some cars the driving lamps were wired to flash if the pods were down.
If the pods are up then either the main beams will flash, or the main beams and driving lamps.

If you like electrical diagrams then have a look here...

Mine were as Wedg1e says..driving lights were for flash when the pods are down..other than that they would only come on when the pods were up with full beam on and front fog switch on....
