You almost had it. One small change:

\version "2.24.0"

\relative c' {
  a''2
  <<
    {
      r2 |
      r1 |
      r1 |
      r1 |
      r2
    }
    \\
    {
      \new CueVoice {
        a,2~ |
        a4 d, g2~ |
        g4 e a g |
        f4 g
      }
    }
  >>
  d'2\f |
}

Adding the \\ between the two sections puts both sections into their own
context. And that produces:

Another option would be to explicitly assign voiceOne and voiceTwo, like:

\version "2.24.0"

\relative c' {
  a''2
  <<
    {
      \voiceTwo
      r2 |
      r1 |
      r1 |
      r1 |
      r2
    }
    {
      \voiceOne
      \new CueVoice {
        a,2~ |
        a4 d, g2~ |
        g4 e a g |
        f4 g
      }
    }
  >>
  \oneVoice
  d'2\f |
}

That gives the same result. Just make sure to add the \oneVoice afterward,
to put everything back to the defaults.
