WPdiscuz does not work inside WP Query

I have a use case where I want to include a page/post with comments onto same page as another page/post. I have closed the comments for the main page/post but have comments open for the additional page/post. The comments and comment form load as required (using WP_Query() and comments_template()) but WPdiscuz does not take over here.

If I turn on comments for the main page/post, both comment sections (main and secondary) do have WPdiscuz in use. I want to have the possibility to have comments closed for the main loop but open for the second query.

//$discussion_id is the page id of the page I want to include
$args = array(
'page_id' => $discussion_id,
);

$discussion = new WP_Query( $args );

if ( $discussion->have_posts() ) :
while ( $discussion->have_posts() ) :
$discussion->the_post();

//displays the content
get_template_part( 'partials/content', 'discussion' );

// this same code works w/o problem with the main loop
if ( comments_open() || get_comments_number() ) :
comments_template();
endif;

endwhile;
endif;

wp_reset_postdata();
