This sends a message to the charger that there is a battery that needs charging.  After the dead battery reaches a few volts of charge, the good battery can be disconnected and the charger should continue charging.  

I've had similar bad luck with a smart charger that was too smart for itself. The method I've used is to use a non-smart (stupid?) manual charger to kick it with some juice to bring it up to the smart-charger's minimum voltage, then remove the non-smart charger and finish with the smart charger.
