LilyPond needs to be explicitly told that this applies to a Staff, etc.,
with \override PianoStaff.VerticalAxisGroup ...
For reasons I have forgotten, it works better to
\new PianoStaff \with {
\override StaffGrouper #'staff-staff-spacing #'padding = #5
} << ... >>

Making space locally is probably the better option. You need to find
something that does not overlay the staves (that is, not the Stems) and
tell LilyPond to give that thing more space
\once\override DynamicText #'minimum-Y-extent = #'(0 . 7)

I don't know this. Probably something in the "internals" manual is required.
