If you are 100% certain that they're in soil then repot the bulbo. I'm not
sure where you are but here in my house the lasiochillum as well as the
longiflorum are both spent. I repotted them, because they both grew several
pseudobulbs during the active growing period from spring to fall. They'll
both sulk as they previously did especially because it is better to repot
right before active growth begins, but hey as the saying goes, better late
than never .

Good luck,
Mariana
p.s. has it previously bloomed?

I was the recipient of a Bulbophyllum longiflorum x lasiochillum today and
it looks like it's planted in potting soil. Do I need to repot it? The
information I have been reading says they don't like to be disturbed and
they like loose media or to be mounted. The plant looks healthy.
