One important part of information is missing here: "directly through"
WHAT? Most probable is that the signal goes directly through the
Edirol box.

You need to find the driver routine software for the Edirol that lets
you turn down its level of "ASIO direct monitoring" or "Direct
Minitoring" or whatever it's called in that software. When this is
done only your virtual cable routing inside Bidule will handle the
signal stream.
