The example you give works fine here, i.e. the file \version 2.2.5 \score { \notes \relative c'' { a4 b c d \break %%% OK break e d c b \break %%% bad break \appoggiatura b8 b1 }} gives the expected results. If you want to demonstrate a problem by sending code snippets, it is much more useful for us if you give a full .ly files that give the problem. Often when I find something unexpected, I try to isolate the problem & create a .ly file of about 10 lines that produces the problem. In this process I mostly find that I did a mistake if it isn't a lilypond bug. In most cases you can just strip all voices but one, and replace most of the music with something like {c1 | c1 | c1 | .. } The same applies to your second example: It is hard to reproduce the problem without know what \spacing, \theSecondViolins, \barlines, etc., could be.
