I have one too--Lava Burst 'Puanani' AM/AOS. I've had it for two years.
It's in a media of rocks, clay pellets, and bark. It blooms twice a
year. I treat it like a cattleya. It goes outdoors for the summer. In
winter, it is in a south-facing window and also gets 400 watt MH light.
It gets watered and fertilized like a cattleya, and no special
treatment. My guess is that your plant is getting used to S/H. When it
finally blooms, it will do it big time.

That's my thought as well.
Actually that depends.
My Odontocidium Wildcat seems to have fizzled after
two new blooms for its reblooming after being moved to SH.
My Miltonidium Hawaiian Sunset was appearing to try and do a phragenstein[1]
after it's move to SH. It finally decided to quit growing the spike
(inflorescence?) to ~2' before deciding it was time to start putting buds
on the tip.
Now if only I could convince my sharry baby that it wants to bloom
instead of growing a pseudobulb bigger than the pot...

[1] Google for phragenstein and you should find the tale of the
fellow with a phrag with 72" flower spike before he had a braino
and watered it with fertilizer concentrate.
