That's how it should work. Locked balls are left for the next game.

Quoted from frenchmarky:

Especially the Tar Pit, it has no switches in it to 'tell' the game where a ball is in the trap. Would have taken extra logic and/or switches to fire the trap release three times to release any ball that might be in there when a game ended, started, tilted etc. Not worth the cost for an EM. Besides, the balls staying there as carryover are a good attract for players.

It actually contains a latching relay which 'remembers' if there's a ball in the pit or not. If it couldn't remember it'd be bad after a power cycle. No way to know how many balls should be in the trough.
