Hi, Rick!

Try this: \once \override NoteColumn #'X-offset = #1.3 <d b>8 r r

Adjust the number until you're satisfied.

Almost, rather than fiddle with the number try using just zero:

\override NoteColumn #'force-hshift = #0.0

This usually works. It is from the larger context:

<< {g4.( ~ | g8[ fis])}
\\ {\override Staff.NoteCollision #'merge-differently-dotted = ##t
      g16(\< e cis ais, \change Staff =lower \stemUp fis, d, | b,,4)\!}
\\ {\override Stem #'transparent = ##t
      s16 e ~ \noBeam
      \revert Stem #'transparent
      \once \override Stem #'flag-style = #'no-flag \stemDown e ~ \noBeam \stemUp e8. ~ |
      \override NoteColumn #'force-hshift = #0.0
      \override Stem #'flag-style = #'no-flag e8 d}
\\ {s8 \override Stem #'flag-style = #'no-flag
      cis16 ~ \noBeam
      \override NoteColumn #'force-hshift = #0.0
      \stemUp cis8. ~ | cis8 b,}
\\ {s4 \change Staff =lower \override Stem #'flag-style = #'no-flag
      \override Tie #'extra-offset = #'(0.25 . -0.25)
      \override NoteColumn #'force-hshift = #0.0
      fis,16 ~ \noBeam fis, ~ | fis,4 }
\\ {s4 s16 \change Staff =lower \override Stem #'flag-style = #'no-flag \stemUp \tieUp d, ~ | d,4 }
\\ {s8. \override Stem #'flag-style = #'no-flag \tieDown
      ais, ~ | ais,8 s }
>>

I also used this number:

       \override NoteColumn #'force-hshift = #-0.6484375

Essentially a magic number of some kind that I found by trial and error.

Thies,
I knew about that. It's more like, add a second voice, stem up. Then the E, stem down, is moved to the right a little and doesn't line up with the notes it should connect to on the next staff down. If you compile my example you'll see what I mean. Basically, I need to be able to shift notes to the right a little to line up. Here's the code again:

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\version "2.8.3"

\layout { ragged-right = ##t }
stemExtend = \once \override Stem #'length = #14
noFlag = \once \override Stem #'flag-style = #'no-flag

upper = \relative c' {
    \clef treble
    \time 6/8
    \key a \major
    << <f a d>8-. \\ \stemDown \stemExtend \noFlag e8 >> r r
    }

lower = \relative c' {
    \clef bass
    \time 6/8
    \key a \major
    <d b>8 r r
}

\score
    {
        \new PianoStaff <<
            \new Staff = "upper" \upper
            \new Staff = "lower" \lower
        >>
    }

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

Thanks,
Rick

Are you looking for something like
