Need help with alias text replacement behavior

I am trying to use a players name in a topic prompt for dialogue. However, the alias is not filled until later in the quest since the player selects the person for this alias through earlier dialogue. I am using ForceRefTo in a papyrus fragment to fill the alias.

 

Using the console I have determined that the alias IS being filled correctly. In addition, the person follows me like they should (the alias adds a follow player package). However, the name shows up as [,,,] in the dialog that uses the alias: <Alias=Recruit>. The creation kit says that this means the alias has not been filled; yet the console shows that the correct character reference that I chose is in the correct alias (Recruit). The flag 'stores text' has been enabled on the alias.

 

So this raises the question: can the text only be filled/stored at the beginning of the quest? (i.e. does it only work on pre-filled references?) Or should this be working? If so, what am I missing?
