That's what they are suppose to do...water collects on the slide awning and not on the slide roof.
Retract your slide about half way after a rain storm and the water will shed off the awning and be gone...
Slide awnings have extra material and are spring wound so that they can flex down with a water pool.
x2. or
1) reach up with a broom handle under the awning and lift it a little to drain before retracting.
2) run the tongue jack up or down before retracting to let the water run off.
I don't bother doing anything till I'm ready to leave. then I do (1) or (2) above or just ratract it a foot or so and stop and then most of the water will drain off.
I don't use balls, noodles etc. because more than likely I'd forget they were on top then retract and squish them.
