You need to put it in the screen context and not in the request attributes, if you're using groovy then it's just:
context.surveyWrapper = surveyWrapper Reason being that the request attributes (and session attributes and parameters) have already been placed in the context at the start of the screen rendering and your actions are occurring after that point.

My memory is pretty vague on this but the parameters from the initial add to cart call are stashed in the session while the survey is sent to the user. Once the user completes the survey and submits it then the parameters are pulled back out of the session and the add to cart call proceeds as normal. I only remember that because I implemented it due to XSS issues that were present in the previous implementation where the survey form was being used to pass around unknown parameters as hidden fields in order to maintain state across the two requests.
You should see in the original ShoppingCartEvents code a call to UtilHttp.stashParameterMap(...) and then later to UtilHttp.restoreStashedParameterMap(...). The string returned from the stash call should be included in the survey form as a hidden field and then used later to retrieve the original parameters so that the add to cart code can function correctly. Controller events occur prior to the start of screen rendering so request attributes are at that point the only form of context available (along with request parameters, session attributes and the webapp context). Once screen rendering begins a combined map of those sources is generated and used as the screen's context from that point forward.
