Changing companion breaks subsumed ability and Equilibrium mod

[(PSN)Gneecap]

I have a DespensIvara; if I change from the Helios Prime she had when I added Dispensary, her Equilibrium mod stops working and the Dispensary flower has output reduced by 95%. Without Equilibrium, this means the casting cost negates the benefit. Anyone else experiencing anything like this and know a fix/workaround besides just sticking with one companion for the life of the frame?

The reason Equilibrium doesn't recover your energy is that you are at full health, and thus cannot pick up health orbs. This can be changed by using Synth Fiber on a companion, any companion will do.
