I ran into the same problem and noticed it in the numbering of

\makeatletter\@Latintrue\makeatother to the polyglossia language
settings, because "bidi tests for \if@Latin, so you can get around
the problem by setting it to true."

Thanks for the pointer--I'm not using polyglossia, so afaict the above solution doesn't quite work for me. But I was successful with a slight variant of this, from

http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/84293/amsmath-bidi-siunitx-possible-bug
(which addressed what I guess was a different bug, since it was in 2012). This work around is to define \@Latintrue as a name (I think that's what this does, my tex creds are not good):
   \usepackage{bidi}
   \csname @Latintrue\endcsname

        "I cannot believe that our existence in this universe
        is a mere quirk of fate, an accident of history, an
        incidental blip in the great cosmic drama. Our
        involvement is too intimate. The physical species
        Homo may count for nothing, but the existence of
        mind in some organism on some planet in the universe
        is surely a fact of fundamental significance. Through
        conscious beings the universe has generated
        self-awareness." --Paul Davies
