the intention of using a dynamics context is exactly to keep the marks on
one horizontal line but. 

but you can try to bring the Dynamics nearer to the staff and \tweak or
\override the problematic SustainPedal - I'm not sure this could cause
problems in scores with more than one line, though.

\new Dynamics \with {\override
VerticalAxisGroup.nonstaff-relatedstaff-spacing.padding = #-5 }
