Honestly, what's most important to me is where the sharps/flats in the key
signature are placed. I attach the image of what I expect:
\include "deutsch.ly"
\version "2.12.3"
\score {
<<
\new Staff <<
\relative c'{
\time 1/4
\set Staff.keySignature = #`((9 . ,FLAT))
c4*1/3 d es f g a h a g f es d c4
}
>>
\new Staff <<
\relative c' {
a4*1/3 h c d e fis gis fis e d c h a4
}
{ %% Key Signatures
\clef bass
\set Staff.keySignature = #`(((-1 . -3) . ,SHARP) ((-1 . -4) .
,SHARP))
s4*2 | %1-18
\clef treble
\set Staff.printKeyCancellation = ##f
\set Staff.keySignature = #`(((0 . 4) . ,SHARP) ((0 . 3) . ,SHARP))
}
>>
>>
\layout {}
}
\score {
<<
\new Staff <<
\relative c'{
\time 1/4
\set Staff.keySignature = #`((9 . ,FLAT))
c4*1/3 d es f g a h a g f es d c4
}
>>
\new Staff <<
\relative c' {
a4*1/3 h c d e fis gis fis e d c h a4
}
{ %% Key Signatures
\clef bass
\set Staff.keySignature = #`((4 . ,SHARP) (3 . ,SHARP))
s4*2 | %1-18
\clef treble
\set Staff.printKeyCancellation = ##f
\set Staff.keySignature = #`((4 . ,SHARP) (3 . ,SHARP))
}
>>

}
I should note that making minor changes (like to the rhythm) may also solve the
problem, but the important thing, for me at least, is that it shouldn't happen,
regardless.
