Default Cobra and Standard Alarm

I have a Cobra Alarm in my Scooby, should my standard Subaru alarm still work?

I can sometimes lock the car with the Subaru alarm (using the key) aswell as the Cobra alarm thob?

Any idea's?

If i lock with the Subaru Key...and open the car using the key, and not disarm the alarm does not go off...

but if i alarm using the Cobra thob, and then use the key to open the car the alarm goes off...

Im guessing that the factory alarm/imobilisor is still fitted but the siren was replaced with a cobra one for the cobra system so in theaory all that would work is the doors locking/unlocking everything else would have been swapped onto the cobra system

Depending on year and car Subaru alarm was remote not via key so locking car with key will not activate anything
with the remote yes it will
