Answering my own question....Looking at the multiple marks example, it uses
outside-staff-priority to set the stacking order,

http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.12/Documentation/user/lilypond-learning/Outside_002dstaff-objects

so adding this

\once \override Score.RehearsalMark #'outside-staff-priority = #10


fixed my problem.
