I have not encountered this (yet), but I seem to remember that staff lists are by design not strictly honored. That is, Finale tries to be intelligent about figuring out whether you want the expression to appear on the top staff of a group and puts it there regardless of which staff is optimized out at the top of the group.
This is a great feature...until it isn't, when it truly sucks. My general attitude towards "intelligent" software features is, heaven save me from them. But that doesn't seem to be the consensus. If this is Randolph is encountering, I would remind him that it is possible to hide assignments on individual staves, even with a staff list.
