Avoid field inherit during subtaks creation (non numeric field)

Hello,

in a workflow I use various subtask (different issue types); all with their own schemes (screens, fields). Some fields apply to all subtasks, some are unique.

If I create/open the first subtask, all is fine. Those fields that apply to all the subtasks are empty (textfields) and I can fill it with content.
But in the moment I create/open the second subtask those fields that apply to all the subtasks show the content of the first subtask. I can overwrite it, but this is confusing for the users.

How can this be avoided?
I have seen this but it seems it is not applicable in this case.

Thank you for your response.

Hi Anette

I was not able to recreate your problem. Is it on the create screen of those subtasks, are you using default values? 
If yes let me know and I'll try again internally to have more information
