I guess the problem is that you only want to see x,y but you need to search on z,k first? That's a bit more tricky. You can use a restart search engine, which restarts after each solution. Then for each solution you add the negation of the solution as a constraint in the root, e.g. (not (x==1 and y==1)). I'm not sure how well this scales if you have many solutions, but it could be worth a try.
