Weird behavior for after-line-breaking

Hello, please consider the following snippet. The procedure called at after-line-breaking doesn't do *anything*, but a weird space is added between staves. If you remove the \override line OR the \tuplet, this doesn't happen Why?? Is there a fix for this? The error happens for both 2.18 and 2.19
