Default rail and stile bit problem

I'm using a one piece rail/stile bit in a router table altho I think I'd
have the same problem with a two bit set.

I can cut the stiles fine. I can cut either the end grain or the length cut
on the rail with no problem. My problem seems to be with the *second* cut on
the rail. For example - I cut the profile on the end grain of the rail - on
my bit this is good side down. Next I want to cut the profile along the
length of the rail - adjust the bit as required - this cut is good side
face up. Make the cut -

When the bit meets the end cut profile I get a slightly deeper cut - it
looks like the bearing surface loses contact. FWIW. I've used a fence in
line with the bearing and no fence at all - same issue. I'm guessing it's a
matter of technique but I'm puzzled.

Any thoughts?

Thanx,

Vic Baron
