I would think that is the same problem you are having when using the pop up for triggering, its giving you false lighting.

Perhaps I should have said - the remote flashes are definitely triggering but somehow the camera is recording less light even though there is more light being generated. If it was just that the remotes were not triggering, then the histogram should be exactly the same as for just the pop up - but in fact the exposure is less
