You can also set the chords' outside-staff-priority to 601 - the volta bar's is 600 - but that looks bad if you have a chord anywhere other than the downbeat of the first bar.

to make the alternate ending signs look better.

to that until I figure out what I think the best looking way is.

Thanks all!
