If so, it is because I think auto transmit switching is enabled by default with the WBX on the USRP2. I asked a question a while back as to whether or not the WBX has auto TR enabled or not by default, and how to change it, but I don't think I got an answer.
Auto TR switching basically stops the RX stream while something is in your TX buffer. - George
