That is strange, why do you need to do the \new DrumVoice-lines in
drummode? Example of 2.5.1.3:
\new DrumStaff <<
\new DrumVoice = "1" { s1 *2 }
\new DrumVoice = "2" { s1 *2 }
\drummode {
bd4 sn4 bd4 sn4
<<
{ \repeat unfold 16 hh16 }
\\
{ bd4 sn4 bd4 sn4 }
>>
}
>>
in "normal" mode they is not needed:
\version "2.11.52"
\new Staff
\relative g' {
f4 c' f, c'
<<
{ \repeat unfold 16 e16 }
\\
{ f,4 c'4 f,4 c'4 }
>>
}
This "looks" about the same.

Ok, what happens if you replace the bd4 sn4 etc. with the snares from
last example of 2.5.1.2 ? By doing it this way, a tie is missing:
\version "2.11.52"
\new DrumStaff <<
\new DrumVoice = "1" { s1 *2 }
\new DrumVoice = "2" { s1 *2 }
\drummode {
sn16 sn8 sn16 sn8 sn8:32~ sn8 sn8 sn4:32~ |
<<
{ \repeat unfold 16 hh16 }
\\
{ sn4 sn8 sn16 sn16 sn4 r4 }
>>
}
>>
