It's definitely a scoping problem. I was able to get things to work by reaching into the scope of a child element (in the controller) and by defining the variables in the view (html) as being part of the $parent element. This means that all of the variables are set in HTML as

ng-model="$parent.variableName";

Changing this variable's value from the controller requires a call as follows:

$scope.$$childTail.variableName = 'something that you want to change the value to';

But reaching into $$childTail is a no-no. This whole project needs to be reworked to fix the scoping problem if you ask me. And there needs to be documentation on how to access validation variables if the revised project uses anything outside of typical angular data binding.

My solution code is attached in gists, below.
