so i think the problem is located and we can assume it has to do with
\partcombine which i have never used before - but going to
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.15/Documentation/notation-big-page#automatic-part-combining
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.15/Documentation/notation-big-page#automatic-part-combining
and scrolling down a few pages we get to
Known issues and warnings
All \partcombine... functions can only accept two voices and are not
designed to work with lyrics such that when one of the voices is explicitly
named in order to attach lyrics to it,
the partcombiner will stop working.
sorry i have no better news - but if you tell us what exactly you want to
achieve there might be a solution!
