A simple work-around  is to put a control by the same name into the second form and uncheck the visible property. Then add the same rule to the second form to populate it. Workflows designed using Linked Activities, should not exhibit this behavior.  Linked steps in flow are like a single form broken into pieces. Flows using this design pattern have a single schema which includes fields from all its steps.
