Mike,

The problem is apparently that the \clef command implicitly creates some
kind of staff context if it's in a NoteNames context.

If you take the \clef commands out of the music passed to the NoteNames
context, then things seem to work right.  (I haven't fully tested the
instrumentName to see if it can be part of the NoteNames context or not).

Here's some code that works:

\version "2.12.3"

Snotes = \relative c' {
  \time 4/4
  \partial 4
  a'4 |
  bes4 a g d' |
}

Bnotes = \relative c {
  \time 4/4
  \partial 4
  d4 |
  g4 a bes a8 g |
}

ASvoiceAA = {
  \set Staff.instrumentName = #"Soprano"
  \clef treble
  \key f \major
  \Snotes
}


ABvoiceDA = {
  \set Staff.instrumentName = #"Bass"
  \clef bass
  \key f \major
  \Bnotes
}


\score {
  <<
    \new Voice = ASVoiceAA  { \ASvoiceAA }
    \new NoteNames = NNS  {\Snotes}

    \new Voice = ABvoiceDA {\ABvoiceDA}
    \new NoteNames = NNB {\Bnotes}
  >>
}%% end of score-block


HTH,

Carl
