AFAIK AlignBelow/AboveContext should work (but you may have to use it
on the other context, i.e. voices instead of the piano).
However, i think that you actually should use another approach for
what you're doing (i.e. not spawn new contexts when the voices split).
You may find thread "How split SA staff into two staff - each now has
two voices?" helpful for that. Interestingly, i have just a few
minutes ago started another discussion on this very topic, see
"partcombine/divisi framework - let the fun begin!" thread.
