This is a common problem. The small black stud on the inside of the main door presses against the screen door release when the doors are latched together. After a little wear the stud does not push the screen release latch enough and the screen catch will not clear the inside screen holder.
I bought some of those small rubbery/plastic feet that you place on the bottom of items so they won't scratch a desk or table. They're sticky on one side. Get a small one and stick it onto the small black stud. This gives it more movement and will hold the latch clear when the door's are closed.
By doing this it might make it a little more difficult for the screen to latch itself to the main door after you've separated the two doors, but you can easily reach in and help the latching yourself. It's a minor effort compared to the initial problem.
