This is what I'd like. But it compiles with the warning message. My original questions was: why and can I get what I want without the warning?
\version "2.18.2"
\language "english"
\score {
\new Staff {
\time 4/4
\clef treble
\relative c''
{
c1
\repeat volta 2 {
c d e f
}
\alternative {
{
g f e d
}
{
\set Score.voltaSpannerDuration = #(ly:make-moment 4/4)
\repeat unfold 2 {
\repeat unfold 12 {g8 a}
g f e d c d e f
}
}
}
g1 f e d c
}
}
}

With the change to voltaSpannerDuration I get the desired effect but a warning message. Without it there's no error message but the 2nd time volta spanner spans 5 bars - to the end of the line. Which is different from what happens in my original music. I can try to provide a reduced version which displays the issue, but it'll probably take some time to work it out.
