PaymentInfo call throws 'Error decoding field Call'

See original GitHub issue

I’m creating two ApiPromise instances, one use to connect Kusama network and the other use to connect Polkadot network. When I use the two instances to call paymentInfo for estimate tx fee at the same time, then get error below:

RPC-CORE: queryInfo(extrinsic: Bytes, at?: BlockHash): RuntimeDispatchInfo:: 2: Unable to query dispatch info.: Error decoding field Call :: Authorship.0

my code:

const kusamaApi = new ApiPromise({ provider: kusamaProvider });
await kusamaApi.isReady;
const polkadotApi = new ApiPromise({ provider: polkadotProvider });
await polkadotApi.isReady;

const transfer = await kusamaApi.tx.balances.transfer("Efc2jfxwUVUrjCSs4t3o6QJU3R8xqtHpwDvhD2f1oKactFX", 1)
    .paymentInfo("Efc2jfxwUVUrjCSs4t3o6QJU3R8xqtHpwDvhD2f1oKactFX");

const transfer2 = await polkadotApi.tx.balances.transfer("136HWkbAAtk2YcPX41813HsTB58YrUdFT47fTqk4668c4Fkv", 1)
    // this call will get error
    .paymentInfo("136HWkbAAtk2YcPX41813HsTB58YrUdFT47fTqk4668c4Fkv");
