You must always add one more hidden field to the view to insure that it can work to pass the server side validation.

So it is a hidden field and the field xml looks like this

<field 
	type="hidden" 
	name="not_required" 
	default="[]" 
/>

Just add it to any page that use the conditional feature and it should resolve the validation problem.

i found the solution! if i'm use (required="false" ) the validation will not work correctly in conditional form (client-side validation) , if leave required empty (required="" ) the problem will be resolved!
