I had that happen with a digital ballast before. It did that a few times and then just stopped working all together. It turned out the ballast went bad in my case but I cant say for sure with yours. You definitely should try a different bulb before anything else IMO.
Just went to a friends house rigged my ballast up to his grow and it worked fine. Then I put the bulb in his grow and the fucker nearly set on fire. Guess I couldn't smell it burning at my grow because it was in an air cooled reflector hooked up to my fan.
