Looking at the implementation, it turns out that the check
to see if the
bracket
should be printed compares the width of the bracket with the width of
the number.
So, one ugly workaround to get the bracket printed is to do
\override TupletNumber #'X-extent = #'(0 . 0)
but the disadvantage is that the bracket will then run into the number.
