I am writing a paper with 2 authors that have different primary affiliations. However, they both have a common additional affiliation. Currently, this is what I do:

\begin{abstract}
Here is my abstract
\end{abstract}
\keywords{this, that, another}
\maketitle
\end{document}
Unfortunately, this creates two separate footnotes that say the exact same thing: "Also with Secondary Organization." Is there any way to just use one symbol next to both names so that they reference the same footnote?
I've also tried:
\author{Author Two\footnotemark[1]}
for the second author's name instead of using \additionalaffiliation again. This does produce the desired effect, but with a side effect too. Elsewhere in the document, when the authors are referenced, it outputs:
Author One, Author Two[1].
\documentclass{acmart} ...
and add only the author code plus whatever else is necessary to make it compilable. See minimal working example (MWE).
