Indeed - the problem seems to be missing synchronization of system break
and staff number change. The switch of instrument 1 from 2 staves to 1
staff becomes effective before the system is finished, therefore the
system-finishing routines ignore the 2nd staff.
Here's a fragment of the resulting TeX input file:
\newnoi{2}%
\setstaffs11%
...
% Bar count 2
\newmovement70%
\generalmeter{\meterfrac{2}{2}}%
\alaligne
If you change this to:
\newnoi{2}%
%\setstaffs11%
...
% Bar count 2
\newmovement70%
\generalmeter{\meterfrac{2}{2}}%
\stoppiece\setstaffs11\contpiece
the phenomenon vanishes.
Considering similar problems which have been discussed on the mailing
list, I'd suggest to generally enclose all stuff that affects
system-related properties in \stoppiece...\contpiece or some related
construct.
