Yeah,  \partcombine  used to fail in the presence of rests.

A workaround can be easily found using the new partcombine features:
\partcombineSoloI  and  \partcombineSoloII
(or  \partcombineApartOnce etc.), see the doc NR 1.5.2 Multiple voices
 > Automatic part combining (latest version).

Note: apparently all these commands should be in the same voice, this
is not explained in the doc AFAIK.
