What I did is to
Delete the second movement
Delete the second staff
Delete all the bars before the one with Am Asus2
Delete bars with Del,m until the one with Am Asus4sus2
Deleted the Am chords

And I got the resultant problem cut down to something that made it
obvious - see attached!

If ever you start using the LilyPond-user mailing list to help you out
of puzzles you will immediately be inundated with advice from many users
and they will all start by saying "please chop your example down to what
is essential to show the problem" - they even have a TLA for it, called
a MWE. However, you are better off sending it this list, as chopping
down raw LilyPond is much more hard work than chopping down with Denemo
- Denemo has extra verbiage in its LilyPond output which would obfuscate
the problem for them.
