I completely disagree with this. I shoot with flash at 800 and 1600 all the time.
OP, I have a feeling your flash is working too hard. ISO800 at f/5.6 in that environment? Way too dark. Do you have a faster lens? ISO 800 is fine, but not at 5.6. I even often shot at 1600 and 2.8 to really brighten the background. That is why it takes your flash forever to recycle. You probably needed a new battery pretty quick.
I also shoot with flash on a higher ISO. Better carry, and it doesn't work the flash so hard.
