You can use \shape to manually tweak the \laissezVibrer slur. Adjust the
numbers to your needs.
%%%
\version "2.24.4"
slurShapeA = \shape #'((0 . 0) (0 . -1) (15 . -1) (15 . 0)) \etc
\fixed c' {
\time 4/4
r2. g8 a8 ~ | \break
\repeat volta 2 {
a2. c8 c'8 ~ | \break
\alternative {
\volta 1 {
c'2. b8 a8-\slurShapeA \laissezVibrer \bar ":|."
}
\volta 2 {
\break
c'1\repeatTie |
}
}
c1 \bar "|."
}
}
