thanks for the picture - now only I understand what's going on and why 
you had to adjust the horizontal alignment:

you have a \voiceOne situation where the articulations are written in 
the same direction as the stem - and the staccato is not centered here 
(deliberately?) but closer to the stem. in "normal" situations - when 
the the script is opposite to the stem - it is centered on the notehead!
