No alias is created when the serverless-plugin-split-stacks plugin is also used

I've been using the serverless-aws-alias plugin for some time now. It had its ups and downs but now I faced a problem that I cannot overcome.

My serverless project grew too big to be deployed into one CloudFormation stack (I faced the 200 resources limitation of CloudFormation). After some research, I found the serverless-plugin-split-stacks plugin. This plugin will split your stacks into nested ones. And it works on its own. But as my project uses the serverless-aws-alias plugin plugin, while I still can deploy the project without any errors reported, but the lambda functions created have no aliases created for them.

Here's a simple test case:

service: serverless-test

provider:
  name: aws
  runtime: nodejs12.x
  endpointType:                                REGIONAL

plugins:
- serverless-plugin-split-stacks
- serverless-aws-alias

custom:
  splitStacks:
    nestedStackCount: 20
    perFunction: false
    perType: false
    perGroupFunction: true

functions:
  create:
    handler: code.get
    events:
      - http:
          path: /
          integration:                           lambda
          method: get
          cors: true

If you deploy this project like this:

sls deploy --region us-east-1 --stage dev --alais dev

You'll end up with a lambda function without any aliases.

Here are my versions:

$ sls -v

Plugin: 3.6.6

Components Core: 1.1.2
