You seem to be using DrumStaff and in your case you have to replace
the RhythmicStaff with DrumStaff thus:
\override DrumStaff .MultiMeasureRest #'extra-offset = #'(0.0 . -1.0)

However, as Reinhold pointed out, if you use multi-measure rests to
"skip" measures you have to revert the extra-offset for that period.
Assuming you always know when the kip takes place.
\revert DrumStaff .MultiMeasureRest #'extra-offset
