Double Bass Headway EDB-1 into GK 700RB-II question.

I just picked up a GK 700RB-II to play with my electric and double bass. I am running a DPA 4099B and Rev Solo II into the Headway. My electric (Fender Am Stan Jazz) is going into the primary input. I was under the impression that I could run the line out from the Headway into the effects return on the 700. But any time I do that, the signal from my electric goes away. This would make sense to me except for the fact that the 700's manual says. "Effects Return: Returns the Effects Loop signal to the signal path. May also be used as a secondary input for another instrument or CD player. The preamp signal is not interrupted if the Send jack is not used."

But it is!!!

Please let me know if there is a solution. I'd love to run my electric into the GK's eq and the double bass into just the Headway's pre section. Is this possible?

Thank you in advance for any help.
