I think it's because the 2 clashing notes are in the same voice, and therefore any shift would apply to each equally. Try making your bassOneToTrebleTwo use voiceFour.

I'm setting part 2 of BWV142 in a piano-vocal version (Petrucci PDF, p. 3), and am having trouble getting the voices to print correctly in the piano part when they change staves. In 'bassOneMusic' below, the g at the end of m6 and the fis beginning m7 should both be shifted a bit, but my use of force-hshift is not having any effect. What am I doing wrong? Thanks!
