<> and {} only tell something about the time-order of what's between
the parentheses/braces. Whether the notes inside are chorded together
or appear as separate voices is determined by so-called
"notation-contexts" (see section 8 to 10 of the tutorial).
I think you want
\type Staff = staffOne <
\type Voice = vOne {
stuff-1
}
\type Voice = vTwo {
stuff-2
}

I am not sure how mi2mu outputs chords. If they come as separate
sequentials, you'd get
\type Staff = staffOne <
\type Voice = vOne <{ stuff-1 } {stuff-2} >
\type Voice = vTwo <{ stuff-3 } {stuff-4} >

This will chord stuff-1 and stuff-2 together in one voice, and the
same for stuff-3 and stuff-4
Put in a \stemdown and \stemup somewhere in stuff-1 and stuff-3, and
you get the proper stem directions.
