But if I force a line break at the natural place, *after* the first
volta, I get the same error. I would like to fix this but I can't
figure out how. PMX seems to be generating reasonable TeX code around
the linebreak, but \endvolta doesn't seem to work as it should. Any
suggestions?

If we fixed the volta error, there would be no line to interfere with
the bar number :-)

Bar numbers in boxes can be moved with the pmx.tex macro \bnrs#1#2
("bar number raise & shift") where #1 and #2 are numbers of
\internotes for the vertical and horizontal shifts. It must be
entered as a type-3 TeX string during the line preceeding the bar
number to be shifted. The macro is very ugly, but it does succeed in
restoring the bar-number position to the default after being executed
once.
