Hello,

Please read NR 2.1.2 Techniques specific to lyrics > Lyrics and repeats >
Repeats with alternative endings

When a note is tied over into two or more alternative endings [...]
to align the lyrics correctly it is necessary to disable the automatic
creation of melismata over the volta section and insert manual skips

There is also an example which deals with almost exactly the same as your
code.

Kind regards,
Xavier
