Using this search, you can check if an alert was fired from a saved search or not
index="_internal" sourcetype="scheduler" thread_id="AlertNotifier*" NOT (alert_actions="summary_index" OR alert_actions="") savedsearch_name="PROVIDE YOUR SEARCH NAME HERE" | stats count | eval search=if(count>0,"1=2","1=1") | return $search
Use this a subsearch in the base search of 2nd alert
your base search [search index="_internal" sourcetype="scheduler" thread_id="AlertNotifier*" NOT (alert_actions="summary_index" OR alert_actions="") savedsearch_name="PROVIDE YOUR SEARCH NAME HERE" | stats count | eval search=if(count>0,"1=2","1=1") | return $search] | rest of search
I'm assuming that your 2nd alert checks the no of rows from the result and fires when there are events returned. With this subsearch, if first alert is fired, a condition 1=2 (always false) will be returned and 2nd alert will not yield any result.
