Hi Kieren,

in a nutshell the code works as this minimal:

{
  c'1
    -\tweak before-line-breaking
      #(lambda (grob)
        (ly:grob-set-property! grob 'stencil
          (grob-interpret-markup grob "ff")))
    -#(make-music 'AbsoluteDynamicEvent)
}

So, yes DynamicText is caused, but you can't nuke the stencil via
\omit (which would be stencil-override).
But you could do it later.

Applying

\override DynamicText.after-line-breaking =
  #(lambda (grob) (ly:grob-set-property! grob 'stencil '()))

will work, though.

Cheers,
  Harm
