Flow to Playbook to Flow: Passing Parameters

Goal: To transition from a flow into a playbook and then into another flow.  The parameters from the flow must be carried into the playbook, Have the playbook script run, based on the script logic, pass parameters from the playbook to the according flow.

Error: I can see the output parameters in the playbook execution, and I can see it transition to the correct flow. BUT, in the transitioned flow, the session parameters are not set.

Things I checked:

the name of the output parameters in the playbook are the same label as the session parameter used in the flow. The playbook logic for setting them is working. The issue likely lies in how those parameters are being handled during or after the transition back to the flow. I am using a routine playbook. I am accessing the session params in the flow via: $session.params.parameter-name.

Below are images of the test convo console, showing the playbook execution and triggering the correct flow, and labeling the output parameters correctly.  The second image is the start page of the flow that is transitoned to along with the sesssion parameter used.  

Please let me know if you can help
