That's the part-combiner in work.  You probably want to just make it
shut-up, by setting Staff.soloADue to false, see below.  Maybe you
need to tweak the partcombiner wrt chords, or don't actually need/want
the partcombiner, but just fixed \voiceOne, \voiceTwo pairs?

Hmm, there are also two properties, splitInterval and changeMoment,
but they've been omitted in the documentation.  I'll fix that.

(translator-property-description 'changeMoment moment-pair? "duration
that voices are examined for differences, when part-combining.
Usually unset or zero when combining threads into one voice, and 1 (or
the duration of one measure) when combining voices into one staff.")

(translator-property-description 'splitInterval number-pair?
"part-combiner will separate its two voices (or threads) when interval
between the two voices is contained in this range.")
