I'm unable to find the issue in the code. The bidirectional integrator when in path tracing mode (light depth = 0) gives the same result than the path integrator. However by just adding one more light sample (light depth = 1), so still without any real light path, it starts to become darker.

This makes me believe that the issue is some sort of numerical accuracy artefact, similar to what we have with spherical light sources.

The flux member of the bidirectional vertex must not include the scattering at the vertex.
