Actually, it's the other way round: the part-combiner has some code to prevent
combining the voices if a manual beam, slur or tie (or even a hairpin) is
active (and the ties/slurs of the two voices do not match exactly).
However, in your example code, you didn't specify any manual beams. So the
part-combiner (which does it's job in a music function, so it is run looooong
before the automatic beaming comes into play) does not know that a beam is
active and the notes should be kepts together in the same voice. Instead, it
freely distributes the notes to the combined voice for a single chord, thus
breaking the automatic beaming later on. The part-combiner simply does not
have any way to determine where automatic beams will appear.
As soon as you specify manual beams (i.e. force beams) in voice one, you get
the desired output:
vi = \relative c'' { cis16 e g4 b,8 a[ e'16 fis32 g] ~ g16[ fis8 e16] }
