There are a variety of possible reasons that would cause water not to go down when flushed. The most common reasons are (1) an object has been accidently (or spitefully!) flushed in a previous flush and lodged within the toilet or the drain pipe. (2) Build up has formed in the toilet line so that the normal contents plug the line temporarily. Solutions: mechanical snake. If necessary remove toilet. Prevention: (1) None known (2) Treat toilet line with microbial build-up remover product periodically.

This is likely due to a change in water pressure in your Plumbing system when the toilet is flushed. It could indicate a problem with your plumbing or water pressure regulator. It's best to have a plumber inspect your system to identify and address any issues.
