Using version 2.16.2 on windoze, I have a chunk of (pseudo-)code like this:
\score {
<<
\new StaffGroup <<
\new Staff <<
\set Staff.soloText = #"1."
\set Staff.soloIIText = #"2."
\set Staff.aDueText = #"a2"
\partcombine \flutea \fluteb
\set Staff.instrumentName = \instrumenta
>>
[similar blocks for oboes, clarinets, bassoons]
>>
>>
}
The flute staff switches to explicit voices after two bars, the clarinet
staff uses explicit voices throughout (both staves without full-bar
rests in the silent parts, unless both parts are silent), the oboes and
bassoons render as I recall partcombine working in the past.
There's nothing obviously untoward in the constituent parts, it's pretty
straightforward early 19th-century stuff, and the log shows no warnings
related to timing.
I recall partcombine being sometimes inflexible, but predictable and
robust. I note that some tweaks have been added to partcombine recently,
has its default behaviour become less robust?
