Someone helped with fixing the 8va so it didn't repeat 8va after the line
break. However, it is producing a solid line where the 8va is, but only in
this one place:

 \version "2.22.1"


 upper = {

 #(define (my-callback grob)
  (let* (
         ; have we been split?
         (orig (ly:grob-original grob))
         ; if yes, get the split pieces (our siblings)
         (siblings (if (ly:grob? orig)
                     (ly:spanner-broken-into orig) '() )))
   (if (and (>= (length siblings) 2)
             (not (eq? (car siblings) grob)))
     (ly:grob-set-property! grob 'text #f)
     (ly:grob-set-property! grob 'stencil (ly:ottava-bracket::print
grob)))))


\time 5/4
    \override Staff.OttavaBracket.after-line-breaking = #my-callback
     dis'''8\(  \ottava #1 <dis''' dis''''> 8 < ais'' ais''' >2 ~ < ais''
ais''' >\)   |
                   \ottava #0
                   \time 6/8
                      \tempo \markup { \concat  { "Like a lullaby"  \hspace
#0.75 \general-align #Y #DOWN \note {8}  #UP
      " = "
        \hspace #0.5
      ca. \hspace #0.5  "100"
                     }
    }

    % \once \override TextScript.Y-offset = #-5
    \time 6/8
                   dis'''4.  _\markup {\dynamic mp {\italic dolce } } \( ~
dis'''8 gis''4 |

}

lower = {

  \clef treble
<gis' cis'' dis'' e'' >2. ~ <gis' cis'' dis'' e'' > 2
  \time 6/8
  fis'8\(  b ais dis' ais b \) |

}

  \score {

 \new PianoStaff  {

    <<
     \set PianoStaff.instrumentName = #"Piano"
     \new Staff = "upper"{  \upper \autoBeamOff }
      \new Staff =  " lower" \lower

    >>
           }


  \layout {

             }

  }

I'm not sure if I need to later the scheme code in some way to make it
dotted again. Any suggestions?
