Rental Loss not transferring to state

I have a rental loss in a state where I am a non resident.  This home is the only source of income for that state.  On the Federal return, it cannot be used as a deduction since our overall income is over the required amount.  When I enter the info for this state (CT), $0 is listed from the federal form.  I can manually type in the loss amount, however it doesn't appear to transfer the loss details that are calculated on the federal form.  What can I do to include this information with the state return?  Also, do I even need to file this state return since it is a loss, and our only source of "income"?  Thank you.
