Acciaccature have their own built-in slur direction, so if you want to
override it, you need to do it within the acciaccatura:
\version "2.24.0"
down = {
\clef bass
\acciaccatura { \slurUp g,8 } d'2 % works
\acciaccatura { \slurUp d8 } d'2 | % doesn't
}
\score {
\down
}
That your first \slurUp works is sort of an accident: at the immediate
start of the Voice, the synchronisation mechanism that can distinguish
\slurUp \acciaccatura { ...
from
\acciaccatura { \slurUp ...
even though the event happens at the same point of musical time is not
yet set up, and instead a fallback mechanism that cannot make that
distinction takes over.
