I think that is a bug.

Just out of curiosity:
is there a reason why you don't use
        \appoggiatura {g'16 b'16} d''8

Here you could write
        \tag #'singleVoice \bar "||"
and in the conductors score prepend the relevant music with
        \removeWithTag #'singleVoice
while in the single instrument part(s) prepend the music with
        \keepWithTag #'singleVoice
or something along that line.
