This is true in the case of the X/Open Distributed Transaction Processing specifications. The problem with a client starting a transaction and then making an asynchronous call to a remote server is that the client may call commit whilst the server is still trying to do transactional work. To cater for this scenario X/Open disallows transaction propagation on asynchronous requests. This is in contrast to synchronous or conversational requests in which case context propagation is allowed.
