Yeah the load() is definitely unnecessary, but I'm also not sure that's causing the issue because there aren't any variables defined in that load function.

I'm willing to bet your use of load() in the child chart interface is causing your problems - remove that and re-test. The interface should start with a!localVariables.

My main question - are the refresh variables necessary? It seems like most of them are just updating on referenced variables changing, but this seems unnecessary to me. Also can you describe the purpose of this variable?

local!dcselectedrole : a!refreshVariable(
  value:ri!dcselectedRole,
  refreshOnReferencedVarChange: true,
  refreshOnVarChange: {ri!dcselectedRole,ri!programid}
),

You have the value here set to be ri!dcselectedRole, but it's also updating when ri!dcselectedRole changes. This seems unnecessary to me, because you should be able to reference ri!dcselectedRole directly anywhere you need to use it.

To be honest, I'm not certain that all the refresh variables are the issue, but I fear that the added complexity you have with all of them could be masking the issue here.
