You can customize stylesheets to output URL only on a first occurence of 
link. Try to add following template to your customization stylesheet:

<xsl:template match="ulink[preceding::ulink/@url=./@url]">
   <fo:basic-link xsl:use-attribute-sets="xref.properties">
     <xsl:attribute name="external-destination">
       <xsl:call-template name="fo-external-image">
         <xsl:with-param name="filename" select="@url"/>
       </xsl:call-template>
     </xsl:attribute>

     <xsl:choose>
       <xsl:when test="count(child::node())=0">
         <xsl:call-template name="hyphenate-url">
           <xsl:with-param name="url" select="@url"/>
         </xsl:call-template>
       </xsl:when>
       <xsl:otherwise>
	<xsl:apply-templates/>
       </xsl:otherwise>
     </xsl:choose>
   </fo:basic-link>

</xsl:template>
