If you are getting this problem I seriously suggest changing the switch. I experienced the same symptom you described then one night when flicking from dipped to main beam it stuck. All lights immediately went out which led to a major brown trouser moment until I managed to stop without hitting anything.

I assumed the fault was attachment of the stalk as I had added Leven alloy replacements but the fault was the switch itself. Its a cheap fix and IMHO well worth doing.
