Default dihedral roll-back affect

Hi

I read many explanations about this stuff.
The more common one talkes about the side-slip
which causes the A/P to roll back

But when we fly 2 channel glider with wing dihedral
in order to turn we create yaw (side-slip)
by the rudder --->> dihedral translate it to bank (roll)
into the turn !!!

So how roll-back moment is created by the dihedral when having
gusts?
