TextSpanner terminates too early

Following example shows a problem I have in a score with multiple voices where I want the TextSpanner for a barre to be two bars long. Because the actual notes in the two bars are split between the voices, I have the \stopTextSpan on the silent eighth note at the end of bar two in voiceOne, but
