Keep using the diverter in the valve. You can still use the spout with its own diverter.. If you don't touch the spout diverter it will (should) remain in the tub spout position but the diverter up in the valve will govern the flow..
FYI: For some valves, if you set set their diverter to the tub position then a diverter in the spout will govern fully, for other valves pulling the tub diverter will stop the flow completely.
