an LSD does the same thing if the tire is off the ground. its only really functional when both have a least some traction.

You can kinda trick it by apply a little parking brake depending upon which wheel is up in the air/which is controlled by the e-brake.

This may help explain it a little bit. It's kind of a neat vid to watch anyway. It's really deals more with an open diff. Watch the whole thing, it's kinda goofy at the beginning.
