Manual repeat and line break.

[Walt North]

I am working on an arrangement of a James Taylor song.  It really does not lend itself to a straightforward repeat structure since there is a fair amount of bouncing around from chorus to verse.  It needs a combination of volta repeat and D.S al Segno\coda type of arrangement.  After quite a bit of struggle I have not gotten anything to really work well using the built in repeat structures.  The only thing I have really gotten to work is to just use manual repeats combined with markup for the segno markers.  I have this 95% working but am having a problem with line breaks.  Below are stripped down examples of the problem I'm having.

First is what is working from a basic flow point of view. Both code and screen shot.

After that is what I was hoping to get to work using /break and a screen shot. But the \break is causing the start-repeat to be ignored (or hidden?).
